Arsenal are investigating inappropriate comments allegedly made by a supporter towards Liverpool’s Taylor Hinds during the two sides’ FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday.
Both teams released statements explaining that the 25-year-old and a team-mate made match officials aware of comments from a member of the crowd at Meadow Park. The alleged perpetrator was then removed from the stadium.
Hinds said: “Yesterday (Sunday) was an intense game and emotions were high, including the fans, but that did not give anyone the right to subject me to that kind of behaviour while down from a head injury.
“I am there doing the job I love and to carry on playing with that in the back of my mind was hard. All current women’s players and I are playing the sport we love and should be able to do so without fearing such occurrences.
“Every young girl out there hoping and dreaming of becoming a footballer should know that she can do so safely and happily.
“I will not let the actions of one individual ruin what was a fantastic day for the team and our supporters, but it is not OK and I was determined to make a stand.”
Thank you for the support❤️ YNWA https://t.co/C4nDCC8YYd
