The first Utah Royals FC player has added her voice to the chorus decrying Dell Loy Hansen’s comments following Real Salt Lake players’ and coaches’ protest last night.

Tziarra King, a rookie who has been outspoken on issues of racial injustice, posted the following statement on Twitter today:

“Any player’s hope is to be in an environment where they are fully supported not only as a player, but most importantly as a person. For DLH to take this very real situation about the black community, and try to turn it around and make it about himself is completely unacceptable.
