The United States women's football team have filed an appeal against a decision to dismiss their bid for equal pay.
A judge last week rejected the players' claims they were underpaid compared to the US men's side.
The lawsuit was filed by 28 women's national team players last year against the US Soccer Federation and they had been seeking US $66m in damages under the Equal Pay Act.
Giving its ruling, the court had said that the women's team has been paid more on both a cumulative and an average per-game basis than the men's team over the class period.
However, the Judge allowed the players' case for unfair treatment in travel, housing and medical support to go to trial, which is set for 16 June in Los Angeles.
The US team won the Women's World Cup last summer for their fourth title overall. They have also won five Olympic gold medals.
