Brazil 0-0 Jamaica: Women's World Cup history made as Brazil crash out and Jamaica through to last 16
A courageous Jamaica held Brazil to a 0-0 draw to reach the knockout stage for the first time in only their second Women's World Cup while condemning the South Americans to their earliest exit since 1995.
Insane achievement from the Reggae Girlz. The sport is really growing globally, not just the traditional big countries now.
Indeed, and their once-critiziced defense really pulled through and kept the box clear. Already a huge achievement to get this far, will be interesting to see how much further they can go!
I love their nickname, as a huge Reggae fan.
