Brazilian legend Marta Vieira da Silva is the most accomplished footballer in the world. She was born in a country where women were banned from participating in the sport for almost 40 years.

She won FIFA’s “World Player of the Year” Award in six different occasions. The 33-year-old athlete had to fight gender stereotypes, discrimination and inequality just to do what she loved.
