Abstract

This research work consists of an analysis of articles written by women and published in Brazilian newspaper Folha de São Paulo about the 2006 World Cup Football. The articles were divided into three categories that made it possible to identify the different ways in which women writers participated in World Cup Football 2006. If nationalism is the motive that is highlighted by football scholars to explain female participation in this universe, we can argue that in this research study it was as important as other iden-tity aspects which are present in the lives of these writers. They experienced the World Cup by constantly expliciting their many ways of being women. KEYWORDS: World Cup Football – nation – women
