To show appreciation for the efforts made and risks braved by healthcare workers and other professionals in the face of the coronavirus, football stars have come together to pay tribute.

Fifty of football’s biggest stars have all provided their support to humanity’s heroes by applauding their efforts in taking the fight to the coronavirus, including: Lucy Bronze, Magdalena Eriksson, Pernille Harder, Carli Lloyd, Marta, Vivianne Miedema, Ajara Nchout, Wendie Renard, Virginia Torrecilla and Daniëlle van de Donk.

“To recognise the risks that doctors, nurses and other essential workers are having to take on a daily basis, football wants to show its support,” Carli Lloyd told fifa.com. “They are on the front line of the coronavirus battle, working as a team to defend us, to protect us and to keep us healthy. It is thanks to their dedication and professionalism, supported by everyone else’s absolute commitment to following the rules of each national health authority, that we will win.”
