'Concerning level of dishonesty' - U.S. Soccer hits back at USWNT claims in 'LFG' documentary

The federation has countered several assertions made by its players and their attorney in a recently released movie

U.S. Soccer has hit out at the "concerning level of dishonesty" in the team's equal pay arguments in the new documentary "LFG."

The new movie features an "inside account of the U.S. women’s national team’s ongoing fight for equal pay as told by Megan Rapinoe, Jessica McDonald, Becky Sauerbrunn, Kelley O’Hara, Sam Mewis and others," according to a press release.

But the federation has taken issue with several claims in the film, specifically those made by USWNT lawyer Jeffrey Kessler.
