Accessibility in sport has always been an afterthought, and disabled fans have paid the price for that for far too long. FIFA making it a priority for the Women's World Cup is progress worth acknowledging. 🙏 #FIFAWWC2027 #TheStrongSide #InclusiveFootball #WomenInSport #GoalForSafety
Major sporting events are rarely accessible to disabled fans. This Women's World Cup, FIFA is trying to reverse that trend

When we narrow the definition of who belongs in women's sport we do not make it safer, we make it smaller. Every woman deserves to compete with dignity and respect. That standard cannot be selective. #TheStrongSide #WomenInSport #InclusiveFootball #GenderEquality #RespectInSport
Bans targeting transgender women harm all women.
We won't back down from promoting equality and inclusion in athletics.

Because the World Cup is about celebrating the beauty of immigrants, we’re donating 10% of our sales today to support the victims of Belfast racist violence. The world supported Minnesota when we were occupied, it’s our turn to return the favor.

A dominant result can test anyone's composure, but the World Cup stage demands the highest standards of conduct from players and managers alike. What happened after the final whistle is a reminder of why those standards matter. #CallItOffside #TheStrongSide #InclusiveFootball #Canada #Qatar
After their world cup match a few hours ago, Canada and Qatar had disagreements that grew into fights amongst the players. Even the managers argued with each other.
The match ended 6:0 for Canada.

Couldn't agree more. Messi's hat-trick tonight was special, no question. But let's keep the record straight: Marta still holds the all-time World Cup scoring record with 17 goals. Her legacy deserves to be part of every one of these conversations. ⚽🙌 #WomenInSport #InclusiveFootball #TheStrongSide
I love Messi. His goal tonight was sublime.
But the World Cup scoring record belongs, for now, to Marta. She has 17 goals at the World Cup, one more than Messi and Miroslav Klose.
