2023 is an electrifying year for all football enthusiasts. With the new season approaching and the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup going on, this is probably the best time to be alive for all football fans. This Wednesday saw two teams competing with each other for dominance. The two teams in the conversation were Brazil and Jamaica.
Even though the match ended with a draw, it proved a boon for Jamaica. Currently, Jamaica holds the second position in Group F, only second to France. However, Brazil has now been knocked off the tournament.
This loss is seen as an all-time low in Marta’s career. First time since 1995, Brazil failed to qualify for the Women’s World Cup group stage. This certainly left Marta in a sad state, as this season was the last in her very decorated football career. Therefore, it will be a historic day for the Brazilian Women’s team.
Statistically speaking, brazil had more superiority in the field, with 68% possession and 17 shots. Still, they would be going home as they did not make the points to go to the next stage of the tournament.
Nonetheless, fans agreed that it was not a poor performance that ended Brazil’s 2023 World Cup stint. Rather, it was the points game that ended Brazil’s streak. Some fans are sad that it was Marta’s final World Cup, and they expected the veteran to pick up the cup.
And as for Jamaica, they are all set to duke it out with Colombia, Morocco, and Germany in upcoming matches. Therefore, fans are eager to see what is the next chapter for the second position holder in their respective category. With a huge 6-3 win, France seems to be the ultimate competition for Jamaica in the future. Keep following our page to get access to more sporting news.
