Starting against Jamaica in Brazil’s opening game, she is appearing in her SEVENTH World Cup.
The new record sets her apart from any woman – or man – in football history.
When the 41-year-old made her World Cup debut, 150 players at this year’s tournament were not even born.
Formiga also becomes the oldest player to ever play at a Women’s World Cup, overtaking USWNT legend Christie Rampone by a year and two months.
