Canada women's national team donned purple t-shirts with the phrase "enough is enough" in protest of Canada Soccer Association (CSA) before their 2-0 loss to the USA at the SheBelieves Cup.
Thursday night’s protest marked the latest instalment in the national team’s ongoing dispute with their governing body amid concerns over funding cuts and equal pay that have embroiled the squad over the last month.
Earlier in the week, the women’s team announced over social media their plan for strike action that would see them boycott their clash with the reigning world champions. However, due to fears of severe financial and personal repercussions amid legal threats from the CSA, the team U-turned on their decision but said they would play in the match "in protest".
