Brenda Perez is a professional Spanish soccer player who happens to be female. Crazy, we know. She is a female and also does a sports thing!
For a segment on Spanish TV program “El Hormiguero,” Perez went undercover as a male footballer named Dani Perez. They throw a wig and fake facial hair on her, and she indeed looks like a dude. A pretty, petite dude, but a dude. She takes the field and proceeds to kicks ass for a little while, and then when it’s time for a penalty kick, she pulls of her wig and peels off the fake beard.
Watch her fellow players’ reactions:
