How much do American women create and what is their world wide audience apart from the rare world cup competitions.
The American men were knocked out of the world cup qualification by tiny Trinidad!
No wonder nobody watches them.
1) The British Premier League alone generated $7 billion in worldwide revenue last year.
There is no British Premier League. There is an English Premier League, NIFL Premiership in Northern Ireland, The Welsh Premier League, and a Scottish Premier League. These represent the four countries that make up Britain but they do not play each other in their domestic leagues.
2) How much do American women create and what is their world wide audience apart from the rare world cup competitions.
Very little interest. What are their television revenues for the last season? Worldwide audience is nonexistent. TV ads are significantly less than for a similar ad in the men's competition.
3) The American men were knocked out of the world cup qualification by tiny Trinidad!
Actually, that was Trinidad & Tobago. It took two nations to double up and beat the US. Perhaps the lowest point in the history of US soccer. Hard to debate though as there have been many low points in the past 70 years.
4) No wonder nobody watches them
Fan viewership is quite low in the USA and also elsewhere. It is however more popular than watching the women's team, especially worldwide.
