The Three Lions made it into the World Cup quarter-finals in a nerve-shredding battle against Mexico. After the final whistle, there was no stopping them. The team celebrated the triumph extensively with the fans. The English may not have the Yellow Wall, but they do have Wonderwall. The Oasis classic was once again belted out at full volume.
No wonder Harry Kane’s voice was even more shot in the interview afterwards than the penalty spot from which Kylian Mbappé fired France into the quarter-finals against Paraguay.
“Sorry, I’ve lost my voice, I’ve been singing the whole time, I can’t really talk,” Kane apologized to the BBC reporter – but then the captain still croaked on: “It’s unbelievable. A crazy game. My God, we fought so hard. Unbelievable, the team, everything, it’s just unbelievable.”
