San Diego Loyal players believed a member of the opposing Phoenix Rising FC directed a homophobic slur at one of their gay players.
The San Diego Loyal, coached by former U.S. men's national team star Landon Donovan, forfeited its USL Championship match Wednesday night after players believed a member of the opposing Phoenix Rising FC directed a homophobic slur at one of their players.
Donovan, visibly upset while learning the information, told Schantz"this is beyond soccer." To which Schantz replied,"Come on, man, don't make a big scene.""It's got nothing to do with racism," Schantz responded."They're competing," Schantz said. Donovan, in a video posted to the San Diego Loyal's Twitter following Wednesday's forfeit, said the team's one regret from the previous incident was not doing something"in the moment" after Martin's abuse.
