Former pro women's soccer player flashes Nazi salute at pro-Israel rally

A former National Women's Soccer League player was caught on video giving what appeared to be a Nazi salute while driving past a pro-Israel rally in Beverly Hills, California, TMZ reported.

Stefany Ferrer Van Ginkel played for Angel City FC in 2022. In the video, she can be seen giving the salute while in the passenger seat of a car that was driven by another former pro soccer player, Samim Haydari. After she gives the salute, people off camera can be heard saying, "Shame on you."

After the video circulated social media, Angel City FC released a statement saying, "Stefany Ferrer Van Ginkel (stefvangi21) does not play for Angel City Football Club, nor has she been affiliated with the club since November 2022. We condemn her recent actions and statements."

Van Ginkel and Haydari subsequently released an apology video, where Haydari said, "I know we have approached the situation with hate and made it worse with our actions." According to TMZ, Van Ginkel did not speak in the video.
