"This new agreement will lead to men and women receiving equal compensation. Equal pay for men’s and women’s sports has been much debated in recent times: Just last year, five top players on the American women’s soccer team filed a wage-discrimination complaint, accusing U.S. Soccer of paying them and their teammates roughly a quarter of what the men’s national team receives."

Do the men's teams bring in more money? (larger live and tv audience?) - If so then they deserve to be paid more money.
