(Reuters) - U.S. women's captain Lindsey Horan and striker Alex Morgan said on Wednesday they were extremely sad over recent social media posts by team mate Korbin Albert which failed to uphold the integrity of the national side.

Paris St Germain midfielder Albert apologized last week after it came to light she had shared a video from a Christian sermon that spoke about how being gay and "feeling transgendered" was wrong, according to Fox Sports and other news outlets.
