USA鈥檚 1999 World Cup winning team became instant superstars after lifting the trophy in front of 90,000 fans at LA鈥檚 Rosebowl stadium.

25 years on it remains just as iconic thanks also to one of the most famous photographs in sport, when USA鈥檚 Brandi Chastain ripped off her shirt to celebrate scoring the winning penalty against China in the Final.

Chastain and the photographer that day relive that memorable moment along with players from that star studded team including Mia Hamm who went on to be the face of Nike.

USA鈥檚 99ers as they are now called started the tournament selling tickets to their own World Cup matches fearing not enough fans would turn up. Remarkably four weeks later they were World champions and icons of the game, changing the face of women鈥檚 sport and the marketing of female sports stars forever.
