FIFA president Gianni Infantino has delivered another bizarre speech, telling those at the Women’s World Cup to “pick the right battles”.
Infantino has, however, tackled the issue from an odd angle, saying during a speech in Sydney: "We have to start treating men and women, or women and men, in the same way. And I say to all the women - and you know I have four daughters, so I have a few at home - I say to all the women, that you have the power to change. 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.
And do it also at national level, in every country, at continental level, in every confederation. Just keep pushing, keep the momentum, keep dreaming, and let’s really go for a full equality. Not just equal pay in the World Cup, which is a slogan that comes up every now and then. Equal pay in the World Cup, we are going in that direction already. But that would not solve anything.
