England kick off World Cup campaign against Iran after fans caught up in ticket chaos outside stadium
The England players took the knee before a sea of empty seats after scores of fans were unable to get into the stadium because of a glitch in FIFA's ticketing app.
“FIFA is working on solving the issue.“In the meantime fans who are not able to access their mobile tickets should check the email accounts they used to register with the Ticketing app for further instructions.” The teams said they were prepared to "pay fines that would normally apply to breaches of kit regulations" but "cannot put our players in the situation where they might be booked or even forced to leave the field of play".
