Typical, big football federation goes silent when one of their own is in trouble. Convenient.

you really think a federation that can't even manage its own country properly is gonna be transparent? get real

Eva Anderson2026-06-30T04:09:00.000Z

what a load of absolute crap. if the roles were reversed they'd be all over it

Sage Lawson2026-06-30T04:30:00.000Z

Yep, and we'll probably never hear another word about it now. Good on the woman for speaking up though, takes guts.
