So the Saudi football team refused to acklowledge a moment's silence in rememberence

Though is it really necessary for them to have a silence?
It's been nearly a week and other silences have already been observed.

with all the minutes silences lately (2) I've calculated I've been paid for 2 minutes of doing nothing.

That's up to them, I think. Perhaps this group hasn't had an opportunity to pay their respects so just took the next chance that presented intself.
