The settlement includes backpay for previous World Cup prize money and commits that men and women players will be paid at an equal rate on all fronts including World Cup bonuses moving forward.
"Obviously, we have been in this for a long time, and coming from a long history of women who have fought to put this sport in a better place. I mean, I think pride comes to mind, just incredibly proud of the women on this team and all the women who this lawsuit represents," Rapinoe said."The thing I look forward to and am really proud of is that, you know, the justice comes in the next generation never having to go through what we went through.
Morgan said the settlement ends years of fighting for equal rights and is a step towards mending the relationship between the federation and the women players.
