Orlando City defender Shane O’Neill was quoted as saying in multiple news outlets that Tyler used homophobic slurs when the teams faced off. O’Neill said that several gay and lesbian players from his league refused to participate in the Orlando Pride match, citing homophobic remarks from Tyler.

O’Neill said, “F\*\*\*\*\*\* f\*\*\*\*\*\*\*. F\*\*\*\*\*\* gay b\*\*\*\*\*\*.” He added that Tyler was using “negative, disgusting slurs” against gay people.

“It’s totally unacceptable. There is no place in soccer or sports in general for homophobia. And it’s never acceptable to be homophobic, period,” Orlando City defender Tommy Redding said.

Richmond’s Women’s Soccer Team also condemned the incident.
