Taylor Hinds: Liverpool defender target of sexually-inappropriate comment

Hinds said she heard comments when she suffered a head injury Liverpool’s 1-0 win.
She and a teammate reported comments to officials, and a member of the crowd was evacuated from the stadium.
Liverpool captain Hinds said it was “hard” to continue playing after comments.
“I won’t let one person’s action ruin the team and our supporters it’s a great day, but it’s not bad and I’m determined to stand.”
“It’s hard for my mom and dad to not realize what was going on and later yelled at their daughter during a football game.
“I did a great job and thanks to my teammates and everyone at Liverpool for supporting my support, as well as the quick action of the game officials, and everyone at Arsenal, their confident actions and support.
“We can continue to make our movement better now and in the years to come.”
