WAGE DISCRIMINATION

The US players. They claim their federation to charge the same as men.

 

Carol Lloyd, Hope Solo, Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe and Becky Sauerbrunn, World and Olympic champions, have filed a lawsuit against his Federation.

Five of the most important players of the national football team of US, World and Olympic champions, have filed a federal lawsuit against wage discrimination Soccer Federation United States.

In the complaint, the five players argue that the women's team is the economic engine of soccer in the United States, but his players paid much less than their peers in the men's national team.

Those involved in the complaint are five of the most prominent and award-winning athletes in the world: the co-captains Carli Lloyd and Becky Sauerbrunn, forward Alex Morgan, midfielder Megan Rapinoe and goalkeeper Hope Solo. In his complaint they maintained that the salaries of women are nearly four times less than their male national team in the US counterparts.

The complaint was filed Thursday in a statement with the signing of the players. "The numbers speak for themselves," Hope Solo said in a statement. "We are the best in the world, we have three championships of the World Cup, four Olympic championships. They are paid more just for show and us less to win major championships.

The union representing the players is currently involved in a legal dispute with the Federation by the terms of their collective agreement. The agency filed a lawsuit this year trying to clarify that the agreement of the national football players team of the Association of Women of the United States shall be valid from the Olympic Games in Rio until 31 December. The union maintains, however, that the understanding agreed in March 2013 can be interrupted at any time.

Attorney Jeffrey Kessler, one of the lawyers representing the players, said the state of negotiations on the CBA has created the need for women to act in the hope of ending what it says is the "discriminatory treatment and unjust "they have endured for years.

"The reality is that this team is more valuable for the Federation that the men's team. That's what the facts show, "Kessler said in a conference call with reporters.”And that justifies ask charge more than men. But the first step they are looking for is equal treatment. That should be an easy step for the Federation.

The Federation issued a statement saying he was unaware of the complaint, but added that he is "disappointed" with the action. "We have been a world leader in women's football and we are proud of the commitment we have had with the sport over the last 30 years," said the statement.

Many national team players had already spoken out in favor of gender equity in sport, which was claimed before the World Cup last year in Canada. A group of players led by Abby Wambach filed a complaint in Canada to play on artificial turf, while the men's World Cup is played on natural grass.

Alex Morgan made it clear that it is not a single factor that has led them to file the complaint. "It is the right step for us to go ahead with this team," he said.

The US women's team has qualified for the Olympic Games this summer in Brazil, and is currently in Florida for a couple of exhibition games against Colombia.

Nobody suffers like Atletico

PSV force penalties at the Calderon (0-0), but the failure of Narsingh condemns Cocu and ranks the Rojiblancos quarter.

Dad does not deplete the arguments to explain to your child why are fans of Atletico. PSV did not missing words, but facts and images. Atletico is a feeling that is transmitted from parents to children through nights like this, that enhance the legend. The legend of a team that knows how to suffer like anyone, even without scoring a goal in two games to his rival, repeating a 0-0 at the Calderon which melted the heart more than one. A failure in eight penalty shots was enough to jettison the great work of Coco, because no failed Juanfran (8-7) and Atletico are already in the quarterfinals.

He had flirted Simeone during the week with an offensive approach, with an ambitious 4-3-3 in search of a savior goal. A whole smokescreen, unloving Argentine concessions to the stands. Athletic is all heart your all attitude, but not a team that is released like crazy to the goal, despite the 0-0 first-leg invite it.

PSV knew what to do with the ball at all times

Atletico gave the ball to PSV, perhaps relying on the little ability with the ball Cocu and steal many balls in the building to create danger. Nothing is further from reality. The Dutch team grew at the Calderon as a stream in the middle of a storm. Comfortable with the ball, knew what to do with it at all times. It was a tactical clash, full of details, such as individual labels which ordered Coke.

As happened in Eindhoven, Griezmann could change the sign of the party, but his aim in Europe is becoming worrying. Just completed the quarter hour, Zoe he pulled a ball from goal, once that at this point in the film can not fail. Thereafter, he appeared the best version of PSV, full of confidence with the recovery of De Jong reference. Locadia appeared everywhere and Willems raged on the left side. Atletico central salary in each of its centers earned. Juanfran was dismasted. It also emerged the figure of Oblak, successful in their decisions, taking a hand of great merit.

No signs of life Atletico. Griezmann was gone and Carrasco, elected as his companion attack, could not find the spaces with how comfortable you feel. Everything changed after the break, when the PSV seemed to acknowledge the physical exhaustion, but was also merit Atletico, who started stepping Zoet area more clearly. Gimenez, head; Augusto, far and Filipe Luis, volley; They lost the battle with the surprising Dutch goalkeeper.

With the team Simeone dump was PSV who had the best chance so far. But the shot slightly deflected Locadia Oblak, enough to run into the bar. A Morrocotudo scare for Atletico aimlessly. Simeone got to Torres, but soon took to Carrasco. Nobody knew what to play, whether to attack or be conservative. An ideal place for Coco, still more than alive scenario. Even after Torres post. The extension seemed inevitable, driven by Oblak and Zoe.

Zoe Oblak and pushed the game into overtime

The extra time was consumed without the direction of the tie will vary one iota course. They were in total 210 minutes without any of the two teams succeeds in scoring a single goal. All merit, that is true, but worthy of the museum of horrors. Penalties would decide which team would quarter. Things are matched and did not care at the Calderon play in Maracana. Eleven meters are not owned by anyone.

Penalties turned shotguns sniper rifles fair. An unexplained phenomenon. The first fourteen ended in a goal, with all the pressure for Atletico, throwing in the second position. Until it was his turn to Narsingh, who plugged the crossbar. Juanfran free to Simeone ran the band and her damsels times. His team was in the quarterfinals because nobody knows how to suffer as his Athletic
