Jamaica s senior womens national soccer team, the Reggae Girlz, has qualified for the World Cup , making history on the island and beyond.

The Reggae Girlz defeated Panamas womens national team on Wednesday in a penalty shootout after a 2-2 draw. The Panamanian team is scheduled to play Argentina next month and still has a chance to qualify for the cup.

Reaching the FIFA Womens World Cup, to be held next year in France, was not only a first for Jamaica. The Reggae Girlz became the first Caribbean team to qualify for the tournament, FIFA said.

The players celebrated their historic win by singing Jamaicas national anthem after the match, as seen in a video from the teams Facebook page.

The Reggae Boyz, Jamaicas mens national team, famously qualified for the FIFA Mens World Cup in 1998, which was also in France.
