Female football was set to boom following the success of last year's FIFA Women's World Cup in France. More than a billion viewers tuned in worldwide to the tournament. But then the coronavirus struck. Ivana Davidovic hears from Chelsea defender Anita Asante on the injustice of England's Women's Super League being cancelled while their male counterparts in the Premier League are returning to play. While in Colombia, all but one team has stopped paying its players, forcing some to rely on food parcels. Football writer Suzy Wrack considers whether the sponsorship model in the USA is the one to follow with the National Women's Soccer League being the first American league to return post-lockdown. And Tatjana Haenni, former director of women's football at FIFA, calls for world football's governing body to finally deliver on their promise of equality. PHOTO: Catalina Usme, Getty Images
