German players covered their mouth in a protest against the decision to not allow nations to wear the One-Love captains armband at the World Cup.
WHAT HAPPENED? On Monday seven European nations were forced to U-turn on their decision to for their captains to wear ‘One-Love’ armbands at the World Cup. FIFA threatened the nations with sporting sanctions, with the “minimum” punishment being a yellow card to those wearing the armband.
We wanted to use our captain’s armband to take a stand for values that we hold in the Germany national team: diversity and mutual respect. Together with other nations, we wanted our voice to be heard.
