Marta’s Masterful Talents in Germany (Seth Browner TIFO 1/15/14)

Marta Skillfully Maneuvers towards Brazilian victory in Women’s World Cup

In the Women’s World Cup in Germany, the Brazilian women’s national team was set against the Norwegian women’s team in Wolfsburg. Although Norway has typically been a backwater European football power, the women’s game has enjoyed some success in international tournaments. Brazil, naturally, enjoys much prestige and respect at the very mention of soccer. However, the South American country’s athletic celebrity is a result of the efforts of the individual footballers that compete in canary yellow and vibrant blue. Marta reaffirms this pivotal truth through her talented display of competence over her Norwegian opposition. Her performances not only propelled Brazil to victory in this World Cup game, but caught the attention of the transnational soccer community as a adroit female athlete.
