American fans loudly cheered to victory the United States women’s soccer team in the World Cup final Sunday in France. “USA USA” The U.S. women beat the team from The Netherlands 2-0 in Lyon, France. It was the U.S. team’s fourth World Cup championship win. The American team took legal action against the U.S. Soccer Federation for sex discrimination. The team has demanded the same pay as the much less successful U.S. men’s team. The pay difference is major. U.S. professional women soccer players make about $30,000 less a year than U.S. men’s team players. But, an even sharper earnings difference comes in bonus pay. The soccer federation gave the women's team an extra $1.7 million when it won the Cup in 2015. Yet, a year earlier, it had awarded the men's team $5.4 million dollars after it lost in round 16 of the competition. The women players now will negotiate to try to settle their pay dispute with the federation.
