Didier Deschamps told Jules Kounde he was wrong to play in his gold chain against Poland, regardless of whether he was trying to make a political statement with a rainbow logo.

‘Players don’t have the right to wear necklaces,’ said the France boss. ‘He can’t play with sunglasses, a watch or a chain, it’s not allowed. I thought he had taken it off. That’s our fault, our mistake.’

The game stopped as Kounde removed his jewellery and the long lenses of cameras noticed the gold chain adorned with different coloured letters, triggering a theory that it might be a rainbow protest.
