FIFA could pay women's soccer teams equal prize money if they followed the tennis Grand Slam model and had men and women play together in same World Cup.
After the United States Women's National Team won their second-straight World Cup, there were renewed calls for them to receive equal pay to their male counterparts. One of the biggest obstacles to equal pay is the difference in revenue generated by the men's and women's World Cups, how FIFA distributes that revenue, and how the individual soccer federations divvy that money up among the players.
