Brazil suffered an embarrassing Women's World Cup group-stage exit on Wednesday as a 0-0 draw secured an historic place in the last 16 for Jamaica.
Needing a win to qualify, Brazil had the lion's share of possession in the first half but struggled to create much, with Ary Borges heading over from eight yards out after a good cross from Luana the highlight of the opening 45 minutes.
The South American champions came out with more urgency in the second half, Bia Zaneratto looking lively after replacing Borges at the break, but they still lacked cutting edge against a Jamaica side that was yet to concede in the tournament. Instead, it was the Reggae Girlz that grew into the game, with Bunny Shaw racing through on goal in the final 10 minutes but firing off target.
It didn't matter, though. Jamaica only needed a draw to reach the last 16 for the first time and they got it, while Brazil will face serious, serious questions after an incredible, unthinkable elimination.
