    Let’s not pretend FIFA couldn’t produce the rest without even noticing a dip in their finances

    There were 48 teams at the men’s event and 32 women’s teams will participate in Brazil next summer, so a women’s pot two-thirds the size of the men’s $655m would have been regarded as parity, but it is understood the women’s prize money will be about a third of the men’s.
