‘We had to fight to be heard’: Spain stars Putellas and Paredes speak out
www.theguardian.com
Decades of ‘systemic discrimination’ have long forced the country’s female players to shoulder more than football, Alexia Putellas said as she and her teammate Irene Paredes spoke out about the game’s sexism scandal
