Page "FIFA Women's World Cup" Paragraph 6

In the 1999 edition, one of the most famous moments of the tournament was American defender Brandi Chastain's victory celebration after scoring the Cup-winning penalty kick against China.

She took off her jersey and waved it over her head ( as men frequently do ), showing her muscular torso and sports bra as she celebrated.

The 1999 final in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California had an attendance of 90, 185, a world record for a women's sporting event.
