England players had a squad meeting on Thursday night to decide whether to make any sort of gesture ahead of their clash with United States.
Germany players put their hands across their mouths prior to kick-off in their defeat to Japan, signalling they felt gagged by FIFA threatening punishment if they wore the OneLove armband. The German gesture kept the controversy very much alive and John Stones said it would be discussed by the players but implied they would not make a similar move.
The England defender said: “In our meeting, we'll talk about these sorts of things. We don't want to get carried away with what other people are doing.
