USWNT Player Calls Out Christian Teammate Korbin Albert, Only Wants Team To Include Pro-LGBTQ Values

U.S. women's national team soccer player Korbin Albert shared a Christian video about the LGBTQ+ community back in March. She has since apologized after being bullied by Megan Rapinoe and others to do so, but the damage had already been done. Albert not only became enemy No. 1 among liberal soccer fans, but also a controversial figure in her own team's locker room.

Albert, who played at Notre Dame before turning professional, previously re-posted a video on her TikTok account of a sermon talking about how being gay and "feeling transgender" is wrong. She also posted a since-deleted video from Fourth of July weekend a year ago in which she and her family said that "their pronouns are USA." The horror.

Despite her almost immediate apology, the LGBTQ+ crowd lost its collective mind when Albert was named to the Olympic roster, not because of her abilities on the field, but because she is an open Christian.

You can throw Tierna Davidson, a teammate of Albert's who happens to be gay, into the group of folks who aren't exactly thrilled with her inclusion on the Olympic roster.

Davidson felt that just a few days before the USWNT's first match in the Olympics was an opportune time to talk down to Albert because she happens to have values that don't align with her own. She also accused Albert of not knowing any "better" while making it abundantly clear that she believes there is no place on the USWNT to express any sort of morals or values that do not perfectly align with the LGBTQ+ crowd.

"I think it’s a difficult situation that has obviously affected me personally given what she was speaking on," Davidson told Sarah Spain, who's entire persona has become making sure she's the most-liberal person in the room.

"I think that it is something you have to learn as a young player, especially with the platform that you’re given. Your beliefs, or how you choose to express certain things, is very public and people do look and listen. Whether or not it’s something that you grew up with, or it was instilled upon you from a young age, and you might not know better, it is something that can hurt other people."

Davidson clearly can't wrap her mind around the fact that not everyone on planet Earth grew up in a mega-liberal household or that some people attend church on Sundays.

Both the USWNT and USMNT constantly promote the LGBTQ+ crowd with various Pride events, rainbow-themed jerseys, rainbow armbands for captains, and push any other form of content imaginable to promote Pride.

It would be naive and dishonest not to recognize a large portion of both players and fans in the USWNT community are members of the LGBTQ+ crowd, but on the same note, it's ridiculous how it has gotten to the point where the entire identity of the team and its fans seems to center around all-things Pride.

This is a player, days before what could be the biggest moment of her entire soccer career, calling out a teammate for having Christian values over a situation that occurred months ago.

Albert is a former All-American at Notre Dame and plays professionally for Paris Saint-Germain, one of the largest soccer clubs in the world, yet we can't talk about those qualifiers about why she deserves a spot on the team. She's a Christian who made a mistake posting a video on TikTok about the trans community, which is clearly an unforgivable sin among the group of people who never shut up about being inclusive and tolerable to all.
