Income gap between male and female succer players is becoming a global issue. FIFA announced the increase in prize money to the teams and players who joined the 2023 Women's World Cup. However as professional teams they need to win more fans and become financially independent. It was groundbreaking in this sense that this World Cup attracted record number of fans to the stadium and in front of TV.
This World Cup was remarkable in another way. Some African and Caribbian countries where woman's sports are not popular sent their teams, and among them Nigeria, Jamaica and Morocco advanced to knockout stage. A Morocan player with hijab particularly attracted many spectators. It showed thatsuccer was a sport for everyone regardless gender or ethnicity.
