'Shocked and angry' - MLS commissioner Garber call out Cordeiro after controversial USWNT court filing

MLS commissioner Don Garber became the latest high-profle figure in American soccer to criticize Carlos Cordeiro and U.S. Soccer's recent statement regarding the U.S. women's national team, with several former USWNT stars calling on the federation president to resign.

A court document revealed on Monday evening has since been heavily criticized due to a number of remarks about the USWNT.

The release came as a part of the ongoing lawsuit over equal pay, with the documents saying that there is a fundamental difference in “overall soccer playing ability” between men and women, adding that that argument is not “a sexist stereotype" but instead “indisputable science".
