In the fight for equal pay for female soccer players in the USA, the national players around Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe have appealed as announced. The spokeswoman for the plaintiffs announced on Wednesday. A court had originally dismissed the lawsuit, but allowed the appeal.
Only on Monday did the judge in charge allow a settlement in some areas of the conflict. Flights, hotels, training grounds and the equipment of the supervisory staff must in future be comparable with the framework conditions for the selection of men. The issue of payment had been legally separated, here the reigning world champion's players are now fighting on their appeal.
The women's national soccer team sued its own association (USSF) for discrimination in spring 2019. US women are far more successful than men, but are paid significantly less.
