Ed Sheeran is in high spirits as he joins England fans for the Three Lions’ knockout match against Slovakia – but things get off to a lacklustre start as they fall behind
Ed Sheeran was among thousands of England fans in attendance for the Three Lions’ Euro 2024 last-16 tie against Slovakia on Sunday.
The singer, who had previously been spotted in the stands during their 1-1 draw against Denmark, was in high spirits as he joined fans for the crucial knockout match.
As millions back home prepared to cheer on England, Ed joined the teams’ nearest and dearest in Gelsenkirchen to watch the tense game unfold, after what’s been deemed a lacklustre performance by the team so far.
And things got off to a lacklustre start for England as they fell 1-0 behind to Slovakia after just 25 minutes, thanks to a goal by Ivan Schranz.
There were early clashes and a flurry of yellow cards at the Arena AufSchalke, after manager Gareth Southgate made one change to his starting XI following last Tuesday’s underwhelming goalless draw with Slovenia.
