Megan Rapinoe hit out in an interview with the 'BBC', saying that "women's football in England is the same as in the United States", as well as pointing out that "it is so far behind because of what we've had to overcome in the lack of investment".
Rapinoe was as outspoken and cutthroat as ever, criticising underinvestment in women's football in both England and the United States.
