MELBOURNE — Football Federation Australia (FFA) have confirmed the women's team will not tour the United States for matches against the world champion next week after failing to break an impasse with the players' union over pay and conditions. FFA Chief Executive David Gallop said Australia's Matildas team was a casualty of a separate labor dispute with men's players in the country's top-flight A-League. Australia's national players' association said the Matildas had called off their American tour late Wednesday. They were due to play the United States in Detroit on Sept. 17 and in Birmingham, Alabama on Sept. 20. Some 60,000 tickets had been sold for the two US fixtures. — Reuters
