Politics election football Rishi Sunak
Rishi Sunak’s shot at tying his party’s fortunes in with England’s skin-of-the-teeth success landed in row Z – 19 fifty-yard screamers
After complaints that the England team’s Euros performance has been less than thrilling, fans couldn’t really level the same accusation against the last 40 minutes of Sunday’s game against Slovakia.
Simply epic.

A Bellingham equaliser in the last minute of added time, then a Kane winner in extra time secured the quarter-final place that had looked almost impossible mere minutes earlier.

3 lions on a shirt,
2 of them still sleeping,
60 years of hurt,
But Harry Kane’s worth keeping— Greg Jenner (@greg_jenner) June 30, 2024
Always Southgate’s plan to score in the last minute of added time. Smart.

This scene was replicated wherever fans had gathered together to watch.

Of course, Rishi Sunak had something to say about it, and it seemed like there just might be a hidden message.
