- The female players who sued the United States Soccer Federation for equal pay reported that talks broke down on Wednesday and said they were now turning their attention to the courts where they are “eagerly look forward to a jury trial”.
Some 28 players took USSF to court in March alleging they were consistently paid less than their male counterparts even though their performance has been superior to the men’s team. The two sides had hoped to resolve the issue in mediation but the women, fresh from defending their World Cup title in France, said hopes of a settlement had been dashed.
“It is clear that USSF, including its Board of Directors and President Carlos Cordeiro, fully intend to continue to compensate women players less than men.
