Brandi Chastain played an integral role in the success of the United States Women’s National Soccer Team during a career that included 30 goals in 192 international caps and spanned from 1988-2004. Chastain won two Olympic gold medals and two FIFA Women’s World Cups. Her defining moment came during the finals of the 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup against China when she scored the tournament-winning goal in a shootout. She subsequently took off her jersey and fell to her knees in celebration in a photo that graced the covers of such magazines as Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated and is considered one of the most iconic moments in the history of U.S. women’s sports. Professionally, Chastain played in Japan for Shiroki FC and in the U.S. for the San Jose CyberRays, California Strom and FC Gold Pride.
In recognition for her play, Chastain received numerous honors, including induction into the National Soccer Hall of Fame (2017) and Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame (2018). She was also named by the United States Soccer Federation to the USWNT All-Time Best XI list in 2013, joining such greats as Mia Hamm, Joy Fawcett, Julie Foudy, Michelle Akers, Alex Morgan, Abby Wambach, Kristine Lilly, Christie Rampone, Briana Scurry and Carla Overbeck. After her playing career, Chastain worked as a soccer analyst for NBC Sports and ESPN/ABC Sports and served as a soccer coach at Bellarmine College Preparatory school. She was born on July 21, 1968 in San Jose, California and competed at Cal Berkley for one season before transferring to Santa Clara, where she was named the recipient of the Honda Sports Award as the nation’s top collegiate female soccer player.
