This Photo Of An Aussie Football Player Has Caused An Awful Online Reaction

The photo of Tayla Harris, a 21-year-old professional football player, is quite impressive. She can be seen performing an exceptional technical play that ends with a goal for her team.

The photo was published by Channel Seven, which praised the technique of the young woman. Then the Australian Football League (AFL) also relayed the photo celebrating her technical gesture. But here the photo immediately became a target for the sexists who pollute the internet.

As a result, Tayla Harris had to endure the worst sexual criticisms from internet users, which hurt her deeply.

The Australian Football League was forced to remove the photo since the comments were so unbearable. During a press conference, Tayla Harris talked about this sad story by saying ‘The comments I read were repulsive, it made me feel uncomfortable. I felt like it was sexual abuse, if you can say it that way.’

Fortunately, the Australian player has also received a lot of support from internet users and Australian politicians. An investigation was even opened to find those who are hiding behind their screens.

For its part, the Australian Football League (AFL), which had removed the photo to avoid further negative comments, apologised: ‘We are sorry. Deleting the photo sent a bad message. Many comments posted as a result of our tweet were reprehensible, and we will do all we can in the future to ban trolls from our pages.’ In addition to the official apology, the AFL has even considered erecting a bronze statue of Tayla Harris in action! We say they should!
