The soccer organizations of seven European countries said their team captains will not wear a colorful armband at the soccer World Cup in Qatar. A captain is a player who leads the team on the field. The team leaders from England, Wales, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany and Denmark had planned to wear the ‘OneLove’ armbands on the field. The armband was to show support for diversity and inclusion. But on Sunday, before the first European team was to play, soccer governing body FIFA said players who wore the ‘OneLove’ armband would be punished with a yellow card. A yellow card is usually given to players who break rules or make illegal plays. If players get two yellow cards, they are forced out of the game. The captains and their national organizations said it was too risky to start their most important games in many years with a yellow card. In a statement sent Monday, the European countries said their players would not wear the armbands. They said, "FIFA has been very clear that it will impose sporting sanctions if our captains wear the armbands on the field of play."
