At the2008 WPS International Draft Rosana was selected bySky Blue FC ofWomen's Professional Soccer (WPS). In herfirst season she scored five goals from a centralplaymaking role.[5] TeammateYael Averbuch questioned Rosana's defensive capabilities: "for some reason, whenever we meet about defending, the usually quite fluent Rosana no longer speaks or understands English!"[6]
She signed with FrenchUEFA Women's Champions League title holdersLyon in September 2011.[7] From February 2011 until September she had been back in Brazilian football, playing forCentro Olímpico.[8]
In summer 2013 Rosana joined Norwegian clubAvaldsnes. She recommended that the club's owners also sign her compatriot,Debinha, at the same time.[9] In one-and-a-half seasons in Norway, Rosana and Debinha became key players, with Rosana becomingcaptain of the team.[10]
Rosana played forSão José in the2014 International Women's Club Championship. She scored in the Brazilian club's 2–0 final win over Englishwild card entrantArsenal Ladies. She agreed a return to the United States, withNational Women's Soccer League (NWSL) teamHouston Dash, in December 2014.[11]
Before Rosana could play for Houston she was included in an 18-month residency programme intended to prepare Brazil's national team for the2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada and the2016 Rio Olympics.[12] She finished the 2015 season back in Norway with Avaldsnes, and scored in theNorwegian Women's Cup final, which Avaldsnes lost 3–2 toLSK Kvinner FK.[13] In January 2016 Rosana joined French clubParis Saint-Germain.[14] She returned to Brazilian football with São José in August 2016.[15]
TheNorth Carolina Courage signed Rosana on 10 January 2017, after acquiring her rights in a deal brokered by the Courage's prior organization, theWestern New York Flash. She appeared in 4 matches before being waived on 21 June 2017, due to a lack of playing time with the Courage and opportunities to play elsewhere.[16][17] After spending the 2018 season withSantos, Rosana announced her retirement from football.[18]
In 2020 she came out of retirement to play forPalmeiras, before retiring again in February 2021 and joiningClub Athletico Paranaense as the coach of their new women's team.[19]
In June 2000 Rosana made her international debut inBrazil's 8–0CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup win overCosta Rica atHersheypark Stadium,Hershey, Pennsylvania.[20] As an 18-year-old she played at the2000 Sydney Olympics, where Brazil finished fourth after losing 2–0 toGermany in the bronze medal match atSydney Football Stadium.[21]
At the2003 South American Women's Football Championship, Rosana scored Brazil's third goal in a 3–2 win overArgentina which ensured qualification for that year'sFIFA Women's World Cup. At thefinal tournament in the United States she performed well and scored as Brazilupset Olympic championsNorway 4–1.Sweden defeated Brazil 2–1 in the quarter-final.
Rosana was a member of the national team that won the silver medal at both the2004 and2008Olympic Football Tournaments. She was a substitute in the2007 FIFA Women's World Cup Final, which Brazil lost 2–0 to Germany.

In Brazil's victorious2007 Pan American Games campaign, Rosana twice scored from free kicks, against bothCanada andMexico. This led to comparisons with contemporary male footballerRonaldinho.[22]
At the2011 FIFA Women's World Cup Rosana scored Brazil's goal in a 1–0 win overAustralia and the second in a 3–0 win over dispirited Norway. Brazil then lost a controversial quarter-final onpenalties to theUnited States after a 2–2 draw. Rosana had been substituted out forFrancielle with five minutes of normal time remaining.
In an interview withFIFA.com ahead of the2012 London Olympics, Rosana still regretted the manner of Brazil's World Cup defeat the previous year.[23] At the Olympics, Rosana and Brazil lost their final group E game 1–0 to hostsGreat Britain before a record crowd of 70,584 atWembley Stadium. That meant a quarter-final against World Cup holdersJapan, who eliminated Brazil by winning 2–0 at Cardiff'sMillennium Stadium.
At the2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada, Rosana appeared in one of Brazil's four matches, starting the 1–0 final group game win overCosta Rica.
