Brazil Players Strike

In this Nov. 14, 2013 photo, Santos and Bahia soccer players hold a banner that reads in Portuguese; "For a better soccer for all," in protest during the Brazilian championship at the Pacaembu stadium, in Sao Paulo, Brazil. In the latest attempt to improve conditions for footballers in Brazil, players are threatening not to play the second-to-last round of the Brazilian league in solidarity with colleagues at last-place Nautico who say they are not being paid. The players leading the "Common Sense FC" movement said Friday, Nov. 29, 2013, that no one will enter the field in the 10 league matches this weekend unless Nautico pays what it allegedly owes its players. Club officials deny they owe salaries but admit some image rights payments are behind schedule. (AP Photo/Piervi Fonseca/AGIF)
