FIGHTING FOR WHAT IS RIGHT

Kane and England will defy FIFA and continue to wear OneLove armband at finals in Qatar despite fine threat

- Simon Mullock

THE Football Association will defy FIFA by telling Harry Kane to wear the ‘OneLove’ armband when he leads England out against Iran tomorrow.

English football’s governing body will stand by their decision to promote inclusivity at the World Cup by making the powerful gesture – despite FIFA’s announcement yesterday that they are introducing their own captains’ armbands.

Wales will follow suit when they meet the USA later the same day, with Germany, Holland, Belgium, Denmark and Switzerland all expected to do the same.
