Seven European nations, England, Wales, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, and Denmark have decided to abandoned the "OneLove" armbands. The rainbow-themed armband was designed to express solidarity with LGBTQ+ rights ahead of the World Cup. However, FIFA has clarified that the captains would receive sanctions if they enter the field, wearing these armbands. The armbands are part of a campaign to promote "inclusivity".
