Documentary

Told by the pioneering women who competed and showcasing archive footage unseen for 50 years, Copa 71 is the extraordinary true story of the 1971 Women’s World Cup and how it was written out of footballing history.

August, 1971, Mexico City: Teams from England, Argentina, Mexico, France, Denmark and Italy gather at the sun-drenched Azteca Stadium alongside record crowds of over 100,000 screaming fans. The atmosphere is reminiscent of the greatest moments in international sporting history. But the players on the pitch are all women, and it’s likely you’ve never even heard of it.

This is Copa 71, the unofficial Women’s World Cup. Dismissed by FIFA and domestic football associations around the world and entirely written out of history – until now.

★★★★ “Immediately one of the great football documentaries” The Times
