Infantinos message to women: Pick the right battles. Pick the right fights. You have the power to change. You have the power to convince us men what we have to do and what we dont have to do. Just do it. With men, with FIFA, you will find open doors. Just push the doors. They are open
The president also drew criticism for his closing remarks, which some felt placed an undue burden on women to make change, and paradoxically urged them to push doors he claimed were already open.
"Pick the right battles. Pick the right fights. You have the power to change. You have the power to convince us men what we have to do and what we don't have to do. You do it. Just do it. With men, with FIFA, you will find open doors. Just push the doors. They are open.
Viewing figures have broken records in Australia, where a peak 11.5m people - about 46 per cent of the population - tuned in to watch the Matildas play England in their semi-final, the country's most-watched television programme of any kind since 2001 when the existing rating system was established. The 2023 tournament was expanded to 32 teams, and is also the first time the competition has been hosted by more than one country, but Infantino said it has been a financial success.
