Dortmund players also wore messages on T-shirts during warm-up to honour George Floyd. FMTNews BlackLivesMatter

Players of Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin kneel on the field before their match in Dortmund on Saturday.

Dortmund players also wore messages on their T-shirts during their pre-match warm-up in honour of Floyd, a black American man who died in Minneapolis last month while being arrested by police officers. The Cameroonian will face no sanction from the German Football Federation for the gesture after it gave the green light on Wednesday to players who wanted to honour Floyd or support the protests which have raged across the US.

“I am proud of the players who are taking a stand. I am proud of Jadon Sancho. I am proud of Weston McKennie. I am proud of Marcus Thuram. I am proud of Achraf Hakimi. The whole world saw their message,” wrote Ujah in an article for German daily FAZ.
