The USWNT will certainly be receiving the most attention among all the teams. The USWNT has won the past two World Cup titles and is looking to become the first team in men’s and women’s history to win the Cup three times in a row. Despite the intense pressure, USWNT star Alex Morgan is certain of their chances of making history.

Morgan is also confident in the team’s preparation before the competition. “I feel like we have the talent, we have the quality, we have the right coach, the right players, the right camaraderie, the right mentality,” said Morgan. Morgan is of the opinion that there are a few minor details that can assist in winning the Cup similar to their previous World Cup-winning teams.

The USWNT star is certainly no stranger to success, and her optimism going into the upcoming World Cup will surely help the squad this summer. With the passionate Morgan and her teammates working hard to make history, it will be interesting to see what the USWNT is capable of doing on the big stage. The players will certainly benefit greatly from their potential World Cup victory, but they will also rake in $430k.

USWNT players can add $430k with their potential victory

The US Women’s National Team is looking remarkably strong in their pursuit of victory at the 2023 Women’s World Cup. The incentive for the players could not be clearer, as collective bargaining agreements will ensure each player earns nearly $430k should their team be crowned champions.

A precedent was set when the US Men’s national team won their world cup match against Iran in 2022; each of the 26 players would have been awarded around $380,000 apiece if they had won the World Cup. However, due to collective bargaining agreements and USWNT only taking 23 players to the tournament, means individual payouts stand at $430,434 – a huge reward indeed.
