Brazil need to beat Jamaica if they are to avoid a disappointing Group stage exit at the FIFA Women’s World Cup.

The Brazilians suffered a 2-1 defeat to France, leaving them in third place in Group F with 3 points.

Meanwhile, Jamaica battled to a barren draw against the French before beating Panama 1-0 and are in second place.

The Reggae Girlz made history for Jamaica on Saturday when they won a Women’s World Cup game for the first time with the 1-0 win.

Their World Cup exploits come against the backdrop of rows with the Jamaican football federation over a lack of support for the team and unpaid expenses.

A place in the last 16 is still realistic for any of the three teams and Brazil are desperate to continue their quest for a first ever title.

Brazil’s 2-0 defeat to Germany in the 2007 final is the closest they have ever come to lifting the World Cup trophy.

Brazilian veteran Marta only came off the bench in the defeat to France and is poised to start in what could potentially be her lest ever game for her country.
