A professional women's soccer club in Spain is receiving backlash after two "bearded guys" played for their team.

Club Esportiu Europa, based out of Barcelona, took the field over the weekend with two players, Alex Alcaide Llanos and Nil Alcon Labella, who are transitioning from female to male.

The New York Post notes that Llanos and Labella are not yet permitted to play for men's teams, as they have not completed their medical transitions.

Llanos, who scored a goal, has been undergoing hormone treatment for five years; it's not clear when Labella began treatment. Both players had visible facial hair.

"Our girls from @TerrassaFC have lost against Europa because among their rivals there were two bearded guys who now consider themselves women," local counselor Alicia Thomas wrote in a translated post on X. "Decades of struggle to have our place in sport, and now the perverse gender ideology wants to erase our presence. We are governed by sick people."

The team responded to Thomas with a statement quoting her post.

"In light of the violence perpetrated against two of the players from the women’s reserve team, we at Club Esportiu Europa say no to transphobic and LGBTIphobic violence and to any type of violence," the club wrote, via translation.
