Major League Soccer has suspended and fined Atlanta United's Santiago Sosa for three games after he used an anti-gay slur during a match earlier this month, per ESPN.
The 23-year-old used an anti-gay slur during Atlanta United's Oct. 1 matchup against the New England Revolution. Santiago has since apologized to the player the slur was directed at, according to a statement released by the club:
"Atlanta United is aware of Santiago Sosa's use of offensive language during last week's match. The club does not condone the use of harmful or disrespectful language towards any person.
