Players You Should Know: Belén Potassa is one of a select few on this team who played in the 2007 World Cup, when she was 17, and Estefanía Banini has been called the female Messi.

“We live in a soccer-mad country but with a lot of machismo,” Argentina forward Belen Potassa said at the national team’s training grounds on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.

“Women fight since they’re born because we don’t have the same rights as men. But in sports the sacrifice is twice as tough. They don’t pay you, the clothes are not the same, the sponsors are not the same,” said Potassa, who recently signed a contract with a well-known sports brand that supplies her with boots and clothing.

That forces players to split their time between soccer and a second job to survive, said Potassa, who is also a receptionist at a local college.

Bromide of potassa, in doses of fifteen to thirty grains, every two or three hours, will also be found useful.
