At times where homophobia isn't allowed in the world, Los Angeles Galaxy forward Sebastian Lletget had to come out to offer public apologies for a "joke" he made on his teammate, defender of Mexican roots Julián Araujo and that went viral on social networks.

After a training session for the Major League Soccer (MLS) team, where the Aztecs Javier Chicharito Hernández and Jonathan dos Santos also play, the attacker wanted to annoy the young right-back, and had no better idea than to yell at him "eeeeeeehhhh p...!".

Faced with the commotion that the action generated, Lletget had to delete the story from his Instagram account, and immediately contacted the OutSports portal, specialized in sexual minority issues in sport, to publicly apologize for the performance of he.

"I blew it. Earlier today, I posted a video that included me using a derogatory insult in Spanish. I have removed a video from my Instagram story, but I want to address its impact and not hide from it," the US national team started pointing out.
