LOS ANGELES — Now that women’s national team has settled its long-running legal battle over equal pay with the U.S. Soccer Federation, it’s as good a time as any to wonder about what comes next.
Is this peace in our time or a just temporary pause in hostilities? Is this the thing that will mark this generation of players or will they be remembered more for an unprecedented eight-year run in which they won back-to-back World Cups while losing just eight of 126 games?
It doesn’t really matter. Because when the settlement was announced Tuesday, there were no losers.
