Already on the second day of the World Cup in Qatar, there are heated debates about political signs in the conservative emirate. For example, seven European teams ditched the “One Love” bandage after pressure from world association FIFA. According to FIFA, the penalty against bandage wearers would have been a yellow card if countries had breached the ban.

Just before the match between America And Wales, there was another political sign on the ZDF broadcast, which caused a lot of conversation, especially on social networks.

Shortly before kick-off of the USA vs Wales match on Monday evening, ZDF switched to commentary mode. Sports journalist Claudia Newman arrived in a black t-shirt with a rainbow design and rainbow armband. The 58-year-old has sent a clear signal for the rights and recognition of the LGBTQ+ community.

The ban was hotly debated on social media and during the half-time break. The BBC presenter had already spoken during the match between England and England Iran She showed her attitude with the cover of “One Love”. Twitter and other social media have strong support.
