Footballers wear rainbow colored armbands on football pitches in support of the LGBT+ community. Someone else shows the seven-colored glitter on the boot laces. The gallery also has a rainbow flag. And they are different from five people. In support of them, English football player Harry Kane wore rainbow love arm bands on the green field. Harry will also wear the Rainbow One Love armband at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. For this, his necessary FIFA approval may also be gathered. Last September, the Football Association announced that footballers would be allowed to wear rainbow armbands as part of an initiative to fight discrimination and support LGBTQ+ people.
Can you wear a rainbow armband in Qatar? Nine European teams are supposed to wear such armbands. The UEFA World Cup Task Force asked FIFA for permission to wear it at the World Cup three weeks ago. FIFA’s response on the matter is yet to come. The question is will FIFA sanction teams wearing rainbow armbands at the World Cup? Or will be fined. The matter is still not clear. Second, homosexuality is officially illegal in Qatar. In that case, how will the footballers wear the Satranga arm band in the field of Qatar? Earlier, the World Cup in Qatar was at the center of controversy over the death of migrant workers during the construction of the stadium. And now the arm band debate. British national coach Gareth Southgate says – footballers can raise such issues and talk about changing the situation. We have nothing more to do.
