Neymar led Paris Saint-Germain's title celebrations, but fans of the French champions have stayed away as their protest against the club continues. PSG made sure of the title over the weekend , but their success came in less-than-convincing circumstances. Lionel Messi gave Mauricio Pochettino's side the lead against 10-man Lens at the Parc des Princes, but their depleted opponents still found an equaliser to ensure the spoils were shared on Saturday night. The game was notable for boos directed at Pochettino before kick-off, with reports suggesting the manager could still be sacked despite the title win. Supporters walked out in protest despite PSG reclaiming the Ligue 1 title - having finished runners-up behind Lille in 2021 - but the players still had time to celebrate. It was a fourth Ligue 1 title for Neymar since his world record move from Barcelona in 2017, though the Brazilian missed a chunk of the season through injury.

Here’s Why The Women’s Soccer Team Isn’t Paid As Much As The Men’s | The Daily Wire
Every four years we are subjected to Democrats and activists whining about how the U.S. women’s soccer team isn’t paid as much as the men’s team, even though the women’s team wins their World Cup almost every year while the men’s team has never won it. Based on this limited and selective information, one might wonder why the men’s team is paid so much more. But once you learn all the other factors that go into the athlete’s pay, this “inequality” falls apart just like all the other gender “wage” gap claims.
