They will lose this case I suspect. The US mens team are compensated in line with other men's teams. The US men's team probably get not much less than say, Italy, Uruguay or Nigeria. There is no way in hell a mere women's team US or otherwise deserve to get the same as truely great players like Suarez etc.

Even as a woman I wish women would just accept that in certain areas eg sport they are vastly interior to men. The same with age, physical ability, lrofessioanl status. If the England U13 boys win the youth world cup does this mean they should get paid the same or more than the men's side who couldn't get out of the group (Costa Rica, Italy, Uruguay) in world cup 2014? Exactly. As controversial as it may seem there is a hierarchy in sport eg amateur, women, kids, Paralympics are all very great bla bla bla but let's not pretend they are on par physically with the non Paralympic /Olympic, male athletes otherwise it's just PC gone loopy.
