— The Age (@theage) June 24, 2015Despite performing well this WC (even better than their male counterparts last year), Australia's womens soccer team get paid considerably less and most play part time
Experts say the team could be a lot better if they were paid enough to play full time like the US and other countries.
FIFA has committed millions of dollars to develop women's soccer programs around the world and an estimated 30 million girls (and counting) play soccer
PLUS: hilarious video by Norwegian soccer players on women's soccer stereotypes.
