Lucy Bronze said the Lionesses have decided against taking the knee before their Euro 2025 semi-final against Italy because there is a clear argument the anti-racism message is not “as strong as it used to be” following the abuse of England defender Jess Carter.
Bronze revealed there is “anger” and “sadness” in the England camp after Carter spoke out against the “vile” and “abhorrent” social media abuse she has received while playing for England at Euro 2025.
