Australian professional footballer Josh Cavallo announced on Wednesday that he is gay in a video message released by his A-League club Adelaide United.
"I'm a footballer and I'm gay," Cavallo said in the emotional video titled 'Josh's Truth.' "All I want to do is play football and be treated equally.
