		</div><p>United States Women’s co-captain Megan Rapinoe has vowed she will never give up the fight for equality after a federal judge threw out their claim for equal pay with their male counterparts.</p>
<p>The 34-year-old, who won the Golden Boot and the Golden Ball at the 2019 Women’s World Cup, has been a leading voice in the fight against US Soccer, which suffered a big blow on Friday.</p>

<p>Judge Gary Klausner ruled the pay case did not warrant a trial, though the players’ case for unfair treatment in travel, housing and medical support will go to trial in June.</p>

<p>Rapinoe, a two-time World Cup winner, tweeted: “We will never stop fighting for EQUALITY.”</p>
<p>The United States National Women’s Team’s (USNWT) spokesperson Molly Levinson said the team were “shocked” and that they would appeal against the decision.</p>
<p>“We are shocked and disappointed with today’s decision, but we will not give up our hard work for equal pay,” she said on Twitter.</p>

<p>“We will appeal and press on. Words cannot express our gratitude to all who support us.”</p>
