July 10, 1999, Pasadena, California, USA: US midfielder American soccer BRANDI CHASTAIN, 30, drops to her knees after making the final and winning goal during penalty kicks, after the host United States and China played to a scoreless draw. After two scoreless overtimes, the United States won the match 5-4 with when Chastain, a righty, fired a surprisingly left-foot penalty past China’s star goalkeeper G. Hong to win the World Cup for the USA. Chastain removed her shirt and swung it in triumph above her head. In her soon-to-be famous black sports bra, she sank to her knees and with both fists raised in triumph, looked towards the sky. The sold out paritsan American crowd of 90,185 fans, roared, on a hot sweltering 100 degree day, at the Rose Bowl. The 1999 World Cup games were watched by 660,000 fans and will for ever be associated with the USA defender, celebrating the winning penalty by ripping off her shirt, as her teammates rush to congratulate her. The match represents one of the most important events in the history of American athletics. Played in what remains the largest crowd ever to watch a women’s sporting event.
