This year’s World Cup is not just like any ordinary tournament for the USWNT. Rather, it’s quite a special one for them. Not only are they coming as quadruple title holders, but they are also coming with a win in the fight for equal pay. And their star player, Morgan, subsequently highlighted it.

As stated by the Athletic, she said, “Our team is in a way different space than we were going into the 2019 World Cup. Having achieved equal pay and equal prize money, equal working conditions, but it’s not just us. We’re fighting it, there’s still a lot of teams fighting for it.” The San Diego Waves forward suggests that they are entering this year’s World Cup campaign in a rather different spirit.

The 33-year-old praised the advancements witnessed in women’s soccer during the previous four years. She also insisted that there are other women’s national teams that are still fighting for the same cause. Morgan believes that this year’s World Cup campaign will offer them a chance to help the cause of other national teams.
