Real Madrid star Marcelo displayed his support for the Black Lives Matter movement while celebrating his strike against Eibar in La Liga on Sunday.
The Brazilian left back put the Spanish giants 3-0 up inside 37 minutes on Sunday evening after latching onto a rebound after Eden Hazard was denied in front of goal.
And after putting Madrid in complete control in first half, Marcelo celebrated by taking the knee in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
Protests around the world following the death of George Floyd in America have resulted in the publicity of the Black Lives Matter movement, with football clubs and players using their platform to speak out against racial inequality and police brutality.
Mr Floyd tragically died in Minneapolis after having a knee pressed into his neck for more than eight minutes while being detained by white police officer Derek Chauvin last month.
