Knee or knees?

HI, teachers

“In football, most players touch their knee/knees down when they score, so that’s a touchdown."

I'd like to which one is right, knee or knees?

thanks! ^ ^

if the player touch down on one knee, you will have to the singular form. If the player went down with both knees touching the ground, plural form is used.
