This protester took on three causes at once, with the front of his shirt also reading 'Save Ukraine'! 😮 FULL STORY: 9WWOS FIFAWorldCup
A protestor ran onto the field carrying a rainbow flag and wearing a blue Superman T-shirt that said "SAVE UKRAINE" on the front and "RESPECT FOR IRANIAN WOMAN" on the back during a World Cup match between Portugal and Uruguay.
In the first week of the tournament in Qatar, seven European teams lost the battle to wear multi-colored "One Love" armbands during World Cup matches. Fans also complained they weren't allowed to bring items with rainbow colours, a symbol of LGBTQ+ rights, into the stadiums of the conservative Islamic emirate.Qatar's laws against gay sex and treatment of LGBTQ+ people were flashpoints in the run-up to the first World Cup to be held in the Middle East.
It wasn't until well into the match that commentators detected his absence and noted that the back-up keeper was stationed between the posts instead."He came to me , he didn't feel right and he asked if we should substitute him," Regragui said. The Werder Bremen striker is the oldest outfield player to make a debut for Germany in 20 years after Martin Max debuted at the age of 33 in 2002.Alvaro Morata wasted little time before making an impact after being brought on in the second half by Spain coach Luis Enrique.
