Blues forget to wear tribute armbands

THERE was an embarrassing blunder when Chelsea’s players took to the Wembley pitch without their black armbands.

Players of both sides were to wear the bands as a tribute to the victims of the Manchester bombing.

Gary Lineker, fronting BBC’s coverage, explained at half-time: ‘Apparently it was an error, they just forgot, and they will be wearing them in the second half.’
