England interim coach Lee Carsley has once again refused to sing the national anthem ahead of their Nations League match against Greece.
The 50-year-old made headlines last month when he took charge of his first games as head coach of England after replacing Gareth Southgate on an interim basis.
There was furore as he refused to sing 'God Save The King' as England faced Republic of Ireland and Finland.
And in front of a packed Wembley, Carsley once again stood silent as everyone else belted out the anthem.

Carsley has previously spoken about why he refuses to sing the national anthem, insisting he is concentrating on the game.
"This is something that I always struggled with when I was playing for Ireland," Carsley said of anthems last month.
"The gap between your warm-up, your coming on to the pitch and the delay with the anthems. So it's something that I have never done.
"I was always really focused on the game and my first actions of the game. I really found that in that period I was wary about my mind wandering off.

"I fully respect both anthems and understand how much they mean to both countries. It's something I am really respectful of."
