World Cup: Rainbow hat confiscated, ex-Wales footballer says

Fans were told to remove a "rainbow" version of the Wales bucket hat by stadium security ahead of Wales' World Cup opener, an ex-Wales captain has said.

Laura McAllister, a gay woman and past FIFA Council candidate, said she was told to remove her a hat showing support for LGBTQ people.

"We will continue stand up for our values," she said on Twitter.

The World Cup organisers FIFA, have been asked to comment.
