Women's Football

Saturday’s match will be broadcast in Costa Rica by Repretel, Channel 7, Teletica Radio, Columbia and Monumental. 

Carli Lloyd became the first woman to score a hat trick in a World Cup final as she inspired the United States to a 5-2 demolition of defending champions Japan on Sunday.

Costa Rica was close, they tried hard, but their efforts fell short as a late goal by Brazil’s Raquel Fernandes just seven minutes to the end stopped short the Women's National Team’s dream of advancing to the round of 16 on its first participation in a FIFA World Cup.

Las Ticas will qualify to the knockout stage if they win, draw or even if they lose to Brazil by a difference of one goal.

Costa Rica’s all-time top scorer Karla Villalobos came off the bench and scored the spectacular equalizer that allowed Las Ticas to make it to second place in their group.

The final score in Las Ticas' debut at Canada's World Cup is the country's first point ever in a FIFA World Cup.

Football is by far Costa Rica’s favorite sport, so it's not surprising that 2014 will be remembered as a year of impressive performances by both "Las Ticas" and "Los Ticos."

Costa Rican footballers took a total of 10 awards at the annual Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) Awards announced on Tuesday, including Tico goalie Keylor Navas, who won Player of the Year.
