LOS ANGELES (AP) – Umaasa si Hope Solo na makababalik sa US women’s national team, ngunit ang higit niyang ipinaglalaban ay ang pagkakaroon ng pantay na suweldo para sa mga babaeng player.

Sinuspinde ng anim na buwan ang US soccer superstar bunsod nang maanghang na komento laban sa Sweden national team na tinawag niyang ‘duwag’ sa Rio Olympics.

"Let's be honest, it's not my decision if I return to the national team," sambit ni Solo.

"I find it an honor and a privilege to represent our country at the highest level in a sport that I love, in a position that I love. And I would do almost anything to play at that level once again. I say almost, because at this point in time I believe our fight for equality is much bigger than being on the national team again" aniya.

Makababalik ang 35-anyos na si Solo sa koponan sa Pebrero. Aniya, inilalagay na siya sa mga kamay nina U.S. Soccer Federation at coach Jill Ellis ang kapalaran na muling makalaro para sa bansa.

"I think many of the players are prepared to go all the way in. When we're supposed to have a new CBA by Jan. 1, now is the time you can be scared — you can be scared of going on strike, you can be scared of losing employment and a paycheck. And I think that I have been used as an example, and my firing instilled a lot of fear in the players. And I also know fear is what has held many movements back,” aniya.
