Women’s World Cup: Remember Brazil’s best campaign

The fifth edition of the Women’s Cup was the best for the Brazilian national team. The World Cup was held in September 2007, in China, and 16 teams participated in it, Brazil and Argentina were the only ones who qualified in South America.

The one responsible for the selection was Jorge Barcelos, and among those called up there were names like Marta, Cristian, Britenha and Formiga. The group stage campaign was exemplary: three wins in three matches, and finished as leaders of Group D, which hosted China, Denmark and New Zealand.

In the quarterfinals, Brazil faced Australia and won 3-2, with the rating goal scored by Christian, who was excluded from this year’s call-up to Pia Sundage. In the semi-finals, 4-0 with the right to a beautiful goal of Queen Marta over the US team, two-time world champions.

The final match, which was held in Shanghai, China, was against the German national team, which was one of the favorites at that time. The Brazilians could not stand the pressure and ended up losing 2-0, with goals scored by Birgit Prinz, FIFA’s best in 2003, 2004 and 2005 and Simon Ludher.
