At the center of the controversy were videos reposted by Albert on TikTok. According to The Athletic, one video included a sermon that said being gay and “feeling transgender” is wrong.

According to the report, another surfaced screenshot showed Albert liking an Instagram post mocking Rapinoe’s injury accompanied by the statement, “God taking time off performing miracles to make sure Megan Rapinoe sprains her ankle in her final ever game.”

And then full surrender:

Shortly after Rapinoe shared her post, Albert posted an apology.

“I want to sincerely apologize for my actions on social media. Liking and sharing posts that are offensive, insensitive and hurtful was immature and disrespectful which was never my intent,” her statement said.

"I’m really disappointed in myself and am deeply sorry for the hurt that I have caused to my teammates, other players, fans, friends and anyone who was offended.
