How equitable of them.

The NFL is run in a comparable way.

From what I gather, if let’s say “country a’s” both men and women’s team won the World Cup each team would be compensated roughly the same. I was trying to find out the revenue discrepancy between the men’s and women’s teams with out much success. In the US I would suspect the women’s team generates more revenue due the facts that soccer is or was considered an “feminine” sport and the women tend to perform better amongst their peers then the men.

All one needs to do is look at tv ratings to figure it out.

womens pro sports has low viewership.

soccer is a world sport.  viewer ship in the usa is low compared to the world. for years women's soccer has ranked higher than men but they would take money women earned in the world cup to pay the men more.


the world cup pays millions of dollars to participating teams based on how well they do.  men's usually go home in second or third round while women's rank higher and thus are awarded more money.  true the women's cup doesn't compare to the men's but it's still hundreds of millions of dollars.

How fifa and their NBA run their affairs is their business. I will admit that the players for team USA soccer tend to be quite obnoxious. More so the case when a 15yo team beats them quite handily. Maybe they ought to have the men’s and women’s team compete against each other and the payment is determined by the percentage of the total score.

I think you may have interjected the politics into that.

Like I said, very equatable. Should be based on who has a bigger draw as a whole.  If the women's team draw 5 million and the men's team draws 10... is it fair to spit the earnings equally?

If the respective player for each side agree to that arrangement then yes.

More like one side browbeat into submission.

Why does it feel this has immediately become an issue of relative pay on a left-wing / right-wing politics footing instead of about sport? What's happening in your media?
