Did ya actually buy the US Soccer Federation's rationale?
"U.S. Men’s National Team Blasts U.S. Soccer for Claiming It Pays Women More"
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/07/usmnt-statement-womens-team-equal-pay-fight.html
For one, it didn't factor in the sponsorships that the US men get. And for another, the US Fed is counting the women's pro league wages and grass-roots investments for the women - which have not to do with being in the national team (non-national team players get those money too)
