NEW DELHI: England head coach Sarina Wiegman believes taking a knee, a tradition to show support for the black lives matter campaign, is simply not enough of a stand against racism after defender Jess Carter was subjected to racist online abuse.
The Lionesses squad released a statement confirming they will no longer be taking the knee ahead of kick-off to express support for teammate and England defender Jess Carte, who revealed she was on the receiving end of racial abuse during the ongoing Women’s European Championship.
