The U.S. Soccer Federation says the women’s national team players leading a class-action lawsuit for equal pay have no basis to sue because they each earn more than the highest-paid men’s player.

Carli Lloyd, Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan and Becky Sauerbrunn have out-earned the best-paid male player each year since 2017, according to a chart U.S. Soccer included in a court filing Monday. This year, income for the four women ranged from $377,046 to $382,395 from January through September -- more than four times the $91,396 collected by the unidentified male player who earned the most from 2014 through 2019.

“The class representatives each received more compensation than any single MNT player and were not injured by U.S. Soccer’s allegedly discriminatory pay practices,” the federation said in the filing.

In their March lawsuit, the women’s team accused U.S. Soccer of continually shortchanging them despite their greater on-field success compared to the higher-paid men’s players. Job conditions, including the types of surfaces the teams play on, their travel arrangements and how U.S. Soccer promotes women’s games compared to men’s, are also unequal, according to the complaint.

The four representatives represent 28 women on the current team and said in a filing last month seeking class-action status that the group could top 50 “when accounting for absent current and former players.”

Lawyers for the women had no immediate comment on Monday’s filing.

The case is Morgan v. U.S. Soccer Federation Inc., 2:19-cv-01717, U.S. District Court, Central District of California (Los Angeles).
