The interim deal ensures “at minimum” equal pay with the men’s team, the statement said. But there are “many more important items” that still have to be settled, the women said.
“This isn’t over. We and the men’s national team remain committed to finding a long-term solution that provides for fair and equal treatment for our current national teams and investments in the future of Canadian soccer, but for now, our team just wants to focus on soccer.”
And while that deal was not confirmed until Friday, Sinclair had told reporters at the tournament that it was all but done and the women are concentrating on their on-field mission. Earlier in the tournament, the men’s team released a statement accusing the governing body of “attempting to capitalize on the Women’s World Cup to force us into an inadequate deal.”
