FIFA Women's World Cup: Marta leads Brazil over South Korea

Marta scored her 15th career Women's World Cup goal to become the all-team leader in tournament history, leading Brazil to a 2-0 win over South Korea in Montreal on Tuesday.

The five-time world player of the year scored on a penalty kick in the 53rd minute to put Brazil up 2-0, giving her 15 career World Cup goals and surpassing the 14 goals scored by Germany's Brigit Prinz.

Marta's penalty came after Formiga was fouled by South Korea's So-hyun Cho inside the box, and she sent the penalty into the lower left corner of the goal for the record score.

Formiga had Brazil's first goal, and the 37-year-old became the oldest player to score in tournament history — doing so in her sixth World Cup. Brazil plays its second group-stage game against Spain on Saturday, while South Korea faces Costa Rica.

France sinks England on Le Sommer goal

Eugenie Le Sommer scored in the 29th minute to help France to a 1-0 victory over England.

Sarah Bouhaddi had a clean sheet in the tournament opener for both teams at Moncton Stadium.

England struggled to create chances in wet and windy conditions while Les Bleues, who finished fourth at both the 2011 World Cup and 2012 London Olympics, posed a continual threat with Le Sommer leading the way.

England's best scoring opportunity came late in the first half when France goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi misjudged a cross by Alex Scott but midfielder Chapman's attempted lob sailed wide.

France, ranked third in the world, will next play Columbia while sixth-ranked England take on Mexico in Moncton on Saturday.

An expanded field of 24 teams is playing in the month-long World Cup.

Colombia recovers to draw with Mexico

Daniela Montoya's booming goal from outside the penalty area in the 82nd minute helped Colombia recover for a 1-1 draw against Mexico in Moncton, N.B.

The late draw keeps both countries in search of their first victories in the tournament.

Veronica Perez put Mexico up 1-0 in the 35th minute, turning after a corner kick and firing a right-footed shot that Colombian goalkeeper Castano Cardoso Derly Stefany was unable to keep from just crossing the line.

Yoreli Rincon nearly equalized for Colombia in the 59th minute, but her free kick over the outstretched Mexican goalkeeper Cecelia Santiago hit the post. However, Montoya tied the game in the final 10 minutes. Mexico next plays against England on Saturday, while Colombia faces France.

Spain, Costa Rica draw in debuts  

Raquel Rodriguez Cedeno's first-half goal gave Costa Rica a 1-1 draw against Spain in Montreal in the Women's World Cup debut for both countries.

Rodriguez scored in the 14th minute off a pass from Katherine Alvarado, one minute after Vicky Losada put Spain ahead.

Spain controlled the possession for much of the second half, with Jennifer Hermoso and Sonia Bermudez narrowly missing chances soon after halftime.

Losada had another late opportunity, but Costa Rica goalkeeper Dinnia Diaz saved a shot headed to the top left part of the goal. Costa Rica finished second in last year's CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup, losing to the U.S. 6-0 in the final. It plays South Korea on Saturday, when Spain meets South American champion Brazil.
