The Burnley striker was the star of the show in Saturday's win over Liverpool, but his display was overshadowed by the reemergence of offensive tweets from four years ago.
Andre Gray has offered an "unreserved apology" for homophobic tweets he posted in 2012 that were shared on social media after the striker played a starring role in Burnley's 2-0 win over Liverpool.
Gray, Burnley's top scorer as the side won the Championship title last season, created the opening goal for Sam Vokes at Turf Moor before opening his Premier League account with a well-taken second.
But his on-field contribution was quickly overshadowed after offensive social media posts made by the 25-year-old came to light.
