Melbourne, Sept 9 (ANI): An Australian Matildas soccer player is being investigated by the sport’s governing body after sexually suggestive pictures on her Facebook profile were viewed by 13-year-old fan.
Lisa De Vanna, 25, a highly decorated player, was told to remove the scandalous photos and set her page to private after the mother of the young Matildas fan complained to the Football Federation of Australia.According to the Herald Sun, the girl and her mother were left “distraught” after viewing the pages this week.
The mother, Jane, said she couldn’t believe De Vanna would make the pictures visible to everyone.
“I’m distraught that these are images of athletes my daughter aspires to be like and looks up to,” News.com.au quoted her as saying.In an email to the mother, FFA head of women’s football Leeanne Grantham apologised for the “stupidity” her daughter had been subjected to.
A spokesman for the FFA said the Federation was investigating whether De Vanna had breached the FFA Code of Conduct. (ANI)
