Like many of her male compatriots, Marta got her start playing barefoot on the streets of a small impoverished town in northeastern Brazil.

Unlike the men who merely lacked boots, however, Marta also lacked infrastructure.

From 1941 to 1979—just seven years before Marta was born—it was literally illegal for women to play soccer in Brazil (it was deemed dangerously unfeminine), and that attitude still permeated Brazilian society.

Marta not only had to beat her opponents.

She had to constantly prove women belonged on the football field in the first place.

Gods of Soccer: Marta 🇧🇷

Everytime I hear someone talk about how good Naomi is I remember Alex crying because he felt it was so unfair that Naomi didn’t win the MacHerman award over Cat 😭

Constantly blown away by your strength @naomi_girma.

This was not easy for me to write, but if it helps one person, then it's all worth it. 

We love you, Katie.

There are two Stanford players that Alex obsessively watches to learn from Tomas Hillaird Arce and Naomi Girma.

Morning! A big one - #USWNT defender Naomi Girma will be trusted with the future of the backline for many years to come. I spoke with Girma, as well as college & pro teammates & coaches, who say she’s always been ready, it’s just who she is: https://t.co/kr6VSMRuc4

@jamesearl23 My sons favorite show was taken off Disney plus and he was so upset. I didn’t even think of the implications for actors etc. this is so disheartening

@SpaghettiNeutrl @rletissier Hey! I’m also in the middle school. Been here 13 years so if you need anything :)

[Carina Ibarra @Aggie9]

@SpaghettiNeutrl @rletissier What city? I’m just asking because that looks like my school 🤣

[Carina Ibarra @Aggie9]

@misskubelik I have children. It was not his best life. But by far it was my best life. I was by far the healthiest happiest version of me.

getting smacked so bad you gotta resort to the homophobic chant to end the game is EMBARRASSING

[John Green @sportswithjohn]

Dear God, it's me, John Green. I pray today for world peace, for just and equitable access to healthcare, and for the unmitigated suffering of Manchester City FC.

@heymrsbond My students are torn between my son being lucky because I don’t hit him and my son being unlucky because I expect good grades.
