Argentinian referee becomes FIRST Non European ref to take knee while NO Czech players follow his lead but England players perform the anti-racism

Fernando Andres Rapallini, the first non-European official in the Euros, dropped down on one leg ahead of kick off.

The Argentinian referee was spotted taking the knee ahead of Scotland's clash with Croatia - despite no players following his lead. But he was left in the lurch as footballers from both national sides remained standing at Hampden Park.

Meanwhile the England team continued their anti-racism gesture before the match against the Czech Republic as they knelt with one knee. 

But their opponents remained on their feet during the brief move ahead of kick off at Wembley.

Raheem Sterling scored the only goal of the game which saw the Three Lions emerged top of the Group after two wins and one draw against Scotland. 

He refereed the 2013 and 2018 Argentina Super Cups, the 2017 Argentina Cup final as well as the 2019 Argentina Super League Champions Trophy.
