Germany coach Jürgen Klopp says midfielder Felix Nmecha will not repeat the crown goal celebration that caused controversy after his two goals for Borussia Dortmund last weekend. Critics linked the gesture to a Christian footballers' campaign accused of excluding LGBTQ+ people. Klopp said he challenged the 26-year-old, who insisted he loves everyone and discriminates against no one, but he agreed to drop the gesture anyway.
