At a soccer match in Larissa, Greece, on Friday, players on opposing teams showed true sportsmanship to stage a protest in solidarity with the migrants and refugees who died trying to reach their country.
After the referee blew the opening whistle, instead of starting the game, all 22 players on the pitch — as well as substitute players and coaches on the sidelines — from Greece’s second-division football clubs AEL Larissa and Acharnaikos, sat down in silence. Footage of the moment can be seen in the video above from Greece’s OTE Sports channel, which was distributed by the Guardian.
