The Marta red-card moment at the 2024 Olympics will go down in women’s soccer history. The legendary women’s soccer star, whose full name is Marta Vieira da Silva, received a red card in stoppage time of the first half of Brazil’s match against Spain for a dangerous high kick that clipped Spain’s Olga Carmona in the head. The referee issued a straight red card and Marta was ejected from the game, leaving her team to compete with 10, rather than 11, players on the field. Spain eventually eked out a 2-0 victory over Brazil, scoring two goals in the second half and securing their spot in the quarterfinals.

MARSEILLE, France (AP) — Trinity Rodman and Korbin Albert both scored and the United States remained undefeated at the Olympics with a 2-1 victory over Australia on Wednesday to conclude the group stage. The Americans, who already qualified for the quarterfinals, will play Japan on Saturday at Parc des Princes in Paris. Australia had to wait until the day’s matches were over to learn if it advanced. The United States is the winningest team at the Olympics, with four gold medals in women’s soccer. They’re playing under new coach Emma Hayes, who is tasked with turning the team around after a disappointing Women’s World Cup. So far the team is off to a good start. The front trio of Rodman, Sophia Smith, and Mallory Swanson have scored seven of the team’s nine goals in France.
