Club stats (2025): 3 goals + 1 assist in 13 NWSL matches
Marta came out of international retirement in May for one last hurrah with her beloved Brazil, as she seeks a fourth Copa América title, having previously won in 2003, 2010, and 2018.
At 39, Marta is certainly a legend of the sport, with too many accolades to count. She is a six-time FIFA World Player of the Year winner, Brazil’s all-time top scorer with 119 goals, and her 17 World Cup goals are an all-time record in men’s and women’s football.
She earned her third Olympic silver medal at Paris 2024, before winning both the NWSL Championship and the NWSL Shield with the Orlando Pride later that year.
While it’s unclear how much playing time Marta will see in Ecuador, her veteran leadership—as well as her exceptional dribbling skills and rocket of a left foot—will be key to Brazil’s championship defense.
