Thank you for developing my knowledge about this topic.
I truly admit that I never thought that Women´s World Cup would have such a huge attendance, and I love it, because they deserve to be celebrated and supported.
I Do know an interesting fact about the World Cup, Linda Caicedo, from Colombian team, has participated and scored in three different World Cups in the last year (U-17, U-20 and current World Cup). That is amazing for a young player like her. I wish her all the best and a succesful sport career.
I found really interesting that one in every seven people seen the Women's World Cup in the past. On the other hand, It is curios the fact that the woman who has scored the most goals has done 17 !!! I think that there is not man in the World Cup who has achieve that! Probably, we are watching more women's football in the future.
