Black Lives Matter: Tottenham and Man Utd players take a knee at kick-off

Norwich and Southampton players also take a knee to support Black Lives Matter movement

Tottenham and Manchester United players took the knee in support of Black Lives Matter ahead of their Premier League match

Tottenham and Manchester United players took a knee at kick-off as Premier League teams continued to show their support for the Black Lives Matter movement.

The players and match officials followed the example set by Aston Villa, Sheffield United, Manchester City and Arsenal on Wednesday by taking a knee for around 10 seconds following referee Jonathan Moss's opening whistle.

As will be the case across the Premier League, the players had their names replaced by 'Black Lives Matter' on their shirts.

The game ended in a 1-1 draw, Bruno Fernandes' 81st-minute penalty cancelling out Steven Bergwijn's first-half strike.

Earlier on Friday, Norwich and Southampton also took a knee at kick-off in their game at Carrow Road.
