Big surprise in the group of France, with the elimination of Brazil, hooked by Jamaica (0-0). The Reggae Girlz will see the eighth!
One more surprise in the 2023 World Cup! Brazil, led by two-time Olympic champion coach Pia Sundhage, will not even see the round of 16.
After its defeat against France (2-1), the Seleçao had to win against Jamaica this Wednesday in Melbourne. But the Canarinhas, despite 17 shots against 4, failed to make the difference (0-0). The legendary Marta and her teammates are thus eliminated.
Let us of course highlight the feat of Jamaica, which had already hooked the Blue (0-0) during the 1st day. The Reggae Girlz qualify for the first-ever World Cup Round of 16. They will face the first of group H, which should be Colombia.
In Jamaica too, football has a team 🎶
👏 Congratulations to the Jamaicans 🇯🇲 who eliminated Brazil 🇧🇷 and qualified for the 1/8 finals of this #FIFAWWC ⚽ ♀️
The best response to the cruel lack of support from the Jamaican federation.pic.twitter.com/lPgnv1QIvR
