The US women's national soccer team is participating in the World Cup in New Zealand and Australia. The soccer players of the American team have received a lot of media attention, given that in this World Cup they have refused to sing the anthem of their country.
This is not the first time that something like this has happened and it seems that it will continue for a long time, until their request is realized. It all started in 2016, when former soccer player Megan Rapino got down on her knees, imitating a policeman who had killed an American.
Another reason was that American soccer players have asked to have equal rights in soccer with men and at the same time, the salaries of the players should be the same in both men's and women's soccer. Thus, the American players will continue to remain silent during the anthem, until a second moment when there is another decision.
" Are you interested in women's sports now? It's total nonsense. Tell me a transgender person who has an advantage in sports because of her situation. This is not happening ," said the American soccer player.
Is it too much to ask the US women's soccer team to say the national anthem? pic.twitter.com/g9RnYH12nw
