#fr I love any excuse to talk about the absolute badass that is the queen herself

[that-soccer-guru]

thoughts on the legend herself: formiga

IN THIS HOUSE WE LOVE AND STAN THE QUEEN HERSELF. THE LEGEND. THE BREAKER OF SPIRITS. THE IMMORTAL.

Miraildes Maciel Mota, 7 world cup appearances, every Olympics game since the '96 summer Olympics, 3 time Panamerican gold winner and 6 time Copa América champion, 8 time Brazilian cup winner, one time French cup winner, picked for the FIFA CONMEBOL team of the decade, 200 international caps, known for her nickname Formiga-or "ant" in Brazilian, because she is unselfish and absolutely badass. SHE WAS BORN WHEN BEING A FEMALE SOCCER PLAYER WASNT JUST FROWNED UPON, IT WAS FUCKING ILLEGAL.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW BADASS THIS WOMAN IS. I absolutely love and stan and I know the soccer world will miss her when she decides to retire for good. She embodies the spirit of jogo bonito (the beautiful game) and she's an absolute MASTERCLASS in humanity and resilience.

Yes we absolutely CAN talk about Formiga WHENEVER, WHEREVER MY DEAR ANON.
