A t.v show in Spain set out to prove that female athletes can compete with male competitors. A professional soccer player, Brenda Perez, was disguised as a man and played a full game with a men's team .
Only the team manager and the referees knew that Brenda was a female player disguised. As one can see in the video, Perez can obviously compete with these men.
This video is good for young female players to see because it really proves that women can be just as good as men . Girls growing up playing soccer, grow up hearing 'boys are so much better than girls' and I think that really does a number on our self esteem.
Dayla Wiggs, a Wamogo soccer player, says " I love this video because it shows that without the judgement that the player was a woman, there is no difference in how they play against her."
Matt Rollins, soccer fan and player, says "I don't think this video is accurate because the men she's playing against aren't pro players, so their skill levels are not the same."
