Good grief. If FIFA had any guts they would explain why they don’t just make a strictly women’s soccer game. Be grateful you get paid to be in a game where there is no demand.
Female athletes have two routes to make money, onlyfans/ instagram model or bitchy lesbian demanding equity. its funny because they can’t actually make money off being athletic.
And there are athletic females but it just doesn’t draw the same interest. Granted in my younger years I enjoyed women’s college volleyball. My older sister played volleyball so as a 12 year old I was happy to go to her games and watch her teammates.
Seriously though, wouldn’t the WNBA crash if it wasn’t for the NBA?
Every female athletic competition would crash if they weren’t financed by male sports, hell half of male “sports” would crash if they weren’t funded by the big 4. Football, basketball, baseball, and hockey are by far the largest earners in the US, with a case to be made for soccer growing in popularity/ profitability. NCAA forces those make sports to finance the entire breadth of the NCAA. The same for professional sports, they’re either funded by male pro leagues or your tax dollars.
They are forced by Title IX which is a long standing piece of "equity" over equality legislation that, because it helps women, is not controversial with most people even on the right. In case people were wondering where the Overton Window/power structure of leftism lies.
The WNBA has lost, on average, $10 million a year since its inception. For the 21/22 season they lost something like $20 million while the NBA brought in about $10 billion.
You can't even buy the broadcast rights to the WNBA, when you buy the rights to the NBA you get the WNBA as a free addition. Both the Oxygen Network and the Oprah Winfrey Network dropped the WNBA broadcast license the minute they were able.
The number one demographic for attending WNBA games is >35 year old men with their <18 daughters. Strangely when those girls grow up they would prefer to watch the NBA over the WNBA.
The WNBA is a charity service, without the NBA it wouldn't exist. Listening to the WNBA players complain about the 'pay gap' is laughable. They should be thankful to have a job.

You just described the entire composition of the crowds of female sports games. Men's sports have fans that spend thousands of dollars to travel across the country to watch a team from a city or university they have no affiliation with, well women's sports are only watched by friends and relatives.
My sisters played semi-professional youth basketball and soccer, and it was a complete waste of time. They'd run these girls around every week like they're a minor league baseball team (notably, to the tune of 10s of thousands a year -- IDK exactly how much but it really adds up), but minor league teams presumably have fans.
Nobody got a scholarship since no one cares. Nobody developed a life long passion for these games. As soon as they "flunked" out of college play, that was it. It would have been better just to play as a true amateur the entire time. Playing amateur soccer should be nearly free. That's what the Mexicans do. I have played with them, and they're probably better than my sisters.

And now that college players can get paid there is that one attractive gymnast making a ton of money on onlyfans.

So why are we not letting transgenderism destroy them?

So why are people defending their worthless sports from transgenderism?
Women's soccer, or the FIFA game?
Sport, women’s soccer. I have played FIFA games and enjoyed them.
But have you ever said, "I really need to play as a National Women's Soccer League player?"
Lol! No, that thought never crossed my mind
I think only AoV has.
