Female soccer player disguised as man stuns male soccer teams

Last week, U.S. President Barack Obama said “playing like a girl means you’re a badass.”
El Hormiguero, a Spanish talk show, set out to prove as much and help dispel stereotypes about women’s soccer.
“Men and women playing football can perform at the same level,” says the announcer.
The show enlisted professional soccer player Brenda Perez and disguised her as a man with a seven-hour make-up session.
With a facial prosthetic, beard and wig, 21-year-old Brenda became “Dani Perez” and joined in on a non-league men’s game in Madrid.
Only the team manager and referees knew her true identity as Perez dominated all the men on the pitch with at least two goals and one assist.
During the game, the opposing team’s manager can be heard saying, “Keep an eye on number eight,” before commenting on how well Perez handles the ball.
But as she sets herself up for a free kick, Perez begins to remove her disguise. Stunned, players and spectators’ jaws begin to drop.
And in one swift movement, Perez lands the ball in the net.
Perez, who played for Atletico Madrid this past season, said on the show that it was an “unforgettable experience.

It actually makes it worst because the only way she was able to win was by playing against amateur old men on a Sunday pitch and scoring a freekick doesn't mean shit. It wasn't even a good freekick to be honest. They really could have better job if this was supposed to motive girls.

[@FemaleBehemothNo9]

+Joseph Stalin She's "professional" on the papers. FIFA's "professionals" don't have a thing to do with true professionalism. This girl just has technique and a bit of speed. What's more, we only see a few "key moments" in this video. If you want to understand how great women can be at football, you need to watch the whole match, and put a real professional female player in her place. You 'll need to notice how she 'll be covering the space and helping in ball circulation and/or counterattacks. Even strikers do these jobs in truly professional football. Plus, we don't dive like men do. We are not hypocrites.

[@FemaleBehemothNo9]

You don't need to put them against pro men. Apparently top women teams in the world are overmatched already by young boys who take the sport seriously. When you know what the reality is, Obama's "Playing like a girl means you're a badass" sound pretty damn insincere and patronizing. "USA Women Soccer Team Loses Vs 14 Year Old Boys!", "Australia's national women's soccer team lose 7 - 0 to U15 boys".

[@marlenebrewaeys2397]

Well there is a championship in spain where a women's team won against men's teams. Their forward had the most goals of this championship also. Just saying

[@Mornys]

Hobby level? Sounds like games I'd enjoy playing too. Healthy and good socializing, but it doesn't tell much about overall performance between sexes if they're playing it for fun and aren't gunning to become serious athletes. Probably the best male U15 teams could win there too, easily.
