Marta added another record to her name in Brazil’s opening match at the Tokyo Olympics on Wednesday.

With her brace against China, Marta became the first player to score in five straight Olympic Games.

The soccer icon led Brazil to a 5-0 thrashing over China, with Debinha, Andressa and Beatriz each contributing a goal of their own.

Marta dedicated her second goal to her fiancee and Orlando Pride teammate Toni Pressley.

Marta and Brazil will continue their quest for gold when they face the Netherlands on Saturday in the team’s next group stage matchup.
