Achieving equal gender financial terms in US soccer

After pointing to the wage disparities between women and men soccer players (https://bit.ly/2MsujjD), Al Akhbar newspaper reported today that the US Women National Team players (USWNT) who, last month, have won their 4th world title, are closer to achieving equality in wages and workplace conditions with their male peers. In this regard, the court has set the date for pronouncing its decision in the equal pay lawsuit against the national soccer federation (USSF). Al Akhbar wrote that 28 members of the US Women’s National Soccer Team filed on March 8 a lawsuit against the Federation for gender discrimination and unequal pay. Los Angeles district judge, R. Gary Klausner, set May 5, 2020 as the deadline to decide on the case, after the mediation between USSF and USWNT reached a deadlock. On the subject, the women players’ spokesperson, Molly Levinson, said, the team is looking forward to the jury trial in May 2020 to claim their demands.
