Trinity Rodman has looked up to Marta, the Brazilian soccer star, for years, and Rodman sees her as one of the most significant legends in the history of the women's game. Rodman also wants to beat her. Badly. "Marta has changed the game of soccer around the world," Rodman said Thursday, ahead of Saturday's Olympic final between the U.S. women's national team and Brazil. The U.S. forward then shrugged. "But yeah, we want that gold. I love her, but we want to win." Marta, 38, is playing in her sixth Olympics for Brazil and has previously announced this will be her final major tournament. She has never won a World Cup or Olympic title. Sophia Smith, who is 23, echoed Rodman's sentiments, saying that Marta was the player she always watched highlights of growing up.
