Arsenal boss says FIFA is wrong to ban poppies on shirts

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says Fifa is wrong to ban poppies on shirts for the World Cup qualifier between England and Scotland.

The football associations of England and Scotland will defy Fifa and allow their players to wear black armbands with red poppy emblems for the match.

The Gunners boss says Fifa should not get involved in the issue.

World football's governing body prohibits political, religious or commercial messages on shirts.

Meanwhile, Arsenal will take on Tottenham in the Premier League at 1am Monday.
