Germany are 'in talks' about taking the knee ahead of Euro 2020 Wembley showdown against England tomorrow despite not kneeling at all in 2021... with goalkeeper Manuel Neuer impressed by solidarity of Three Lions in tackling racism

England could be joined by Germany in taking a knee before their Euro 2020 last-16 tie at Wembley tomorrow night, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has confirmed.

Gareth Southgate's Three Lions have consistently taken a knee prior to matches in 2021 to help raise awareness for tackling racism and discrimination.

In contract, Germany have not kneeled before games but goalkeeper Neuer has said that the issue of whether to join England in taking a knee has been discussed in the dressing room ahead of Tuesday's knockout tie.

'We think that's very good from the English national team and from the teams that also do it in the Premier League,' Neuer told German magazine Kicker.
