Danielle Reyna -- the mother of USMNT player Gio Reyna -- is admitting she's the one who notified U.S. Soccer about a 1991 domestic violence incident involving Gregg Berhalter.
-- says she told U.S. Soccer about the incident because she was unhappy with how Berhalter spoke about her son following the World Cup.
Shortly after USA was eliminated, Berhalter said he was close to sending a player home for his actions on and off the field ... and although he never named Gio, it was clear who he was talking about. Danielle released a statement on Wednesday ... saying,"I thought it was especially unfair that Gio, who had apologized for acting immaturely about his playing time, was still being dragged through the mud when Gregg had asked for and received forgiveness for doing something so much worse at the same age."Danielle -- who played for the USWNT in 1993 -- also claims Berhalter is making his 1991 incident out to be less serious than it actually was.
"Without going into detail, the statements from yesterday significantly minimize the abuse on the night in question," she added."Rosalind Berhalter was my roommate, teammate and best friend, and I supported her through the trauma that followed."
