Does anyone know Marta the soccer player? Marta is leaving the World Cup this year. Her first World Cup competition was when she was 17, but time passes by really fast. She is 37 now. Marta is a Brazilian superstar. This year’s World Cup will be her 6th World Cup game, but also her last.

On Wednesday, Brazil played Jamaica and the score was 0-0. They unfortunately got eliminated from the group stage for the first time since 1995.
