Shaun Evans makes a circle with his hand while briefly appearing on the World Cup broadcast.
The Australian referee at the centre of the World Cup hand gesture controversy has responded after calls to have him sacked from the tournament.
Shaun Evans, who was filmed in the review box before Germany's opening game against Curaçao on Monday morning, was accused of making a "white power" symbol after appearing to make a circle with his fingers.
In 2019, the gesture, with the thumb and forefinger touching in a circle and the other fingers outstretched, was designated a hate symbol by the New York-based Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
