On Sunday morning, NJ/NY Gotham FC's own Jess Carter revealed that she has suffered racial abuse throughout the UEFA European Women's Championship this summer. She said the following on a post on X, formerly Twitter, and Instagram:
"From the start of the tournament I have experienced a lot of racial abuse. Whilst I feel every fan is entitled to their opinion on performance and result I don't agree or think it's ok to target someone's appearance or race. As a result of this I will be taking a step back from social media and leaving it to a team to deal with.
