When the Three Lions of England play their first match at the FIFA World Cup, captain Harry Kane may have to deal with the wrath of FIFA.
The world regulatory body, FIFA, has barred the Tottenham Hotspur player from wearing the one love armband. Kane is wearing the rainbow armband to demonstrate his support for the LGBTQ community.

Kane might receive a yellow card if he decides to defy FIFA’s ruling, according to reports from Qatar. Because of the country’s strict religious laws, it is not expected that visiting footballers in Qatar will show any support for the LGBTQ population.
England have been grouped alongside Iran, Wales and the USA.
🚨 FIFA has banned Harry Kane from wearing the One Love armband.
There are concerns he could be booked as soon as the game kicks off if he goes ahead and wears it. ©️🏳️🌈
