The $24 million equal pay settlement will be finalized once the U.S. women’s team and U.S. Soccer ratify a new CBA.



The two sides recently extended the current women’s deal through March 31.

In settling the suit, USWNT members will receive a lump-sum payment of $22 million.

U.S. Soccer will also put $2 million towards players’ post-career goals and charitable efforts related to women’s and girls’ soccer.

Each player can apply for up to $50,000 from that fund.

Wendie Renard’s brace and the inspirational form of Amandine Henry and Eugenie Le Sommer were the undoubted highlights of the morale-boosting win for France, one which sends them to the top of the Group A table ahead of Saturday’s match between fellow group hopefuls Norway and Nigeria.
