The Norway national team players staged a protest against human rights violations in Qatar.

This happened before their 2022 World Cup qualifier match against Gibraltar.

According to The Guardian, 37 of 6,500 foreign workers building stadiums for the 2022 World Cup since 2010.

Norway decided to respond to the human rights abuse by wearing t-shirts with the words "HUMAN RIGHTS."

Norway Coach Ståle Solbakken and Captain Martin Ødegaard announced that they would make a statement to FIFA before the match.

Speaking at his pre-match press-conference, Ståle Solbakken said: "We have plans for something concrete.

"We have to put pressure on FIFA to be more direct, and tough with the authorities in Qatar, to impose requirements."

Norway haven't played in a major international tournament since Euro 2000.

At first I thought it was the rights of the players abused but it actually makes sense that they drew the attention of the world to the plight of migrant workers.visit www.freestuffsng.com for latest freestuffs in Nigeria.

Belize Football Team Bus Held Up By Armed Gang In Haiti

The Belize Football Federation has expressed its "disappointment and disgust" after a bus taking the national team to their hotel in Haiti was held up by an armed gang.

The incident occurred on Monday shortly after the squad had arrived in the country for a 2022 World Cup qualifier.

Police escorting the team were forced to negotiate with the gang to allow the bus to proceed to the hotel.

Captain Deon McCauley described the incident as "a moment of intense fear".

"I am happy everyone is safe and I commend you guys for being brave," he added.

"Let's continue to stick together and please make the best decisions when it comes to the team."

An image posted on the Federation's (FFB) Facebook page showed the gang on motorbikes, wearing masks and carrying weapons.

In a statement, the FFB said: "The Football Federation of Belize takes this time to express its disappointment and disgust at an unfortunate incident faced by the Jaguars as the team was headed from the airport to the hotel in Haiti.

"Despite the four-man police escort, the team bus was stopped by an uproar of insurgents with assault rifles on motorcycles and police escorts were forced to negotiate with them for the team bus to continue its journey to the hotel.

"We are pleased to report that our Jaguars, although shaken by the terrible experience, are safely at their hotel."

The FFB added the safety of the team was its "top priority" and had contacted Fifa and the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football (Concacaf) over moving them to a safer environment.

The team is scheduled to play Haiti in their opening World Cup qualifier in Port-au-Prince on Thursday.

Fifa has been contacted by the BBC for comment.

The hypocrisy of FIFA won't let them notice or even act on this. They preach one thing and do something different. They've been talking about racism since forever. What have they actually DONE?
