Fifty people died in the attack on two mosques, including New Zealand futsal international Atta Elayyan. Australian Brenton Harrison Tarrant, 28, a suspected white supremacist, has been charged with murder over the shootings.

“We will pay tribute to the victims of the tragedy in New Zealand at the England v Czech Republic match on Friday 22 March,” the FA said in a statement.

“We will remember everyone affected by the terrible events in Christchurch.”
