First of all, football education and training institutions need to strengthen education and publicity on gender discrimination, so that students and coaches can realize the existence and harm of this problem. Secondly, football leagues and clubs need to take measures to protect the rights and interests of female athletes, including salary, training conditions and competition opportunities.
