The Belgium football team have been told by FIFA that they must change their away shirt at the Qatar World Cup – because it has the word ‘love’ on it.
before it was controversially announced that any player with it would be shown a yellow card as soon as a game begun.
Teams decided this was too much of a risk and opted out of the gesture, with captain Kane subsequently wearing a normal armband with ‘No discrimination’ written on it during England’s 6-2 victory over Iran on Monday. It seems now though that the row is far from over, and has been taken to new heights, with Peter Bossaert, CEO of the Belgian Football Association, claiming that his side must alter their kits before their first match.As well as the word ‘love’ being embroidered into the collar, the white away kit also features rainbow colours, the symbol for the LGBTQ+ community.‘The word ‘LOVE’ must disappear,’ a furious Bossaert said.
