San Diego Wave FC won the World Sevens tournament by beating Tigres UANL in the final. The new soccer format made the games fast and exciting.
The World Sevens women's soccer tournament was held recently in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It brought together teams from North, Central, and South America to compete in a new style of professional soccer.
In the final, San Diego Wave FC defeated Mexico's Tigres UANL with a score of 3-0. This victory earned the San Diego team the top prize of about €1.9 million from a total prize pool of around €4.7 million.
The World Sevens uses a different format from regular soccer. Matches last only 30 minutes, split into two halves of 15 minutes each. There is no offside rule, and teams can make unlimited substitutions. This creates a fast and lively game.
The tournament had a fun and energetic atmosphere. Music played throughout the event, and players entered the field dancing, adding to the excitement for fans and players alike.
Jen Mackesy, co-founder of World Sevens, hopes the tournament will grow and reach more regions and leagues. The event aims to boost women's soccer by giving players and teams more chances to play and be seen.
