Marta and Brazil fail: missed chance of the first World Cup title against Jamaica
The Brazilian football legend Marta had to experience a bitter disappointment at this year's Women's World Cup. Your team missed the round of 16 and thus the chance of the first World Cup title for Brazil. The “Selecao” did not win against the team from Jamaica, which meant prematurely.
In this crucial group game,trainer Pia Sundhage decided to call Marta back into the starting eleven. After a serious knee injury, the six -time world footballer played again for the first time in a year. In the previous two games it had only been substituted late.
Brazil had problems with the defensive team from Jamaica right from the start. Although they had more possession and dominated the game, they could not create any dangerous opportunities. The long -term goalless Jamaican goalkeeper Becky Spencer could easily thwart the first attempts from Marta.
Brazil remained without ideas even in the second half and could not see any dangerous degrees. On the contrary: Jamaica even had the best chance in the second half, but missed the goal. In the end, the goalless tie and Brazil left the tournament.
For Marta this was a sad moment when she had announced that this will be her last world championship. The tournament ended disappointing for them and it was very frustrated at the end of the game. The hopes for the World Cup title were not fulfilled, and Marta had to come to terms with the early departure.
