A footballer coming out to his teammates is rare in the sport. Even more rare is the moment being caught on video, but that's exactly what has happened for Adelaide United star Josh Cavallo. As reported by the Mirror, Cavallo became the world's only openly gay active top-flight player last October when he came out in an emotional video statement posted on his social media channels. As it turns out, that video was taken a mere moments after he came out to his fellow teammates in the team's locker room, and it was caught on video. The footage shows an emotional Cavallo making an announcement to his team and being embraced by his teammates. The moment was reportedly captured on video as part of an upcoming documentary on the team made by the the Australian A-League. Cavallo's coming out is just one of a handful of moments captured for the documentary. "For all my life growing up, I've learned to live a life of lies, you know. For the last six years, I've been struggling with my sexuality. So today, I'll be coming out to the public that I'm gay, I'm a gay footballer," Cavallo told his team.
