A full house! The women's national football team played in front of more than 22,000 spectators at the National Stadium

On August 10, the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup Costa Rica 2022 was inaugurated at the National Stadium, and the long-awaited match between the Costa Rican women's football team and Australia took place.

The game was a complete sell-out, as the Costa Rican team received the support of more than 22,500 people.

In a brief interview with teletica.com , the athletes themselves expressed their joy at seeing so many fans. Goalkeeper Génesis Pérez expressed her happiness at the atmosphere in the stands.

“All I can say to the fans is thank you so much because we really feel your support. Who wouldn't want to host a World Cup at home? So, thank you very much,” Pérez said.
