Three Lions supporters have been desperately scrambling for tickets for tonight’s World Cup showdown with Senegal, nicknamed the Lions of Teranga.
And after years of hurt, our boys have a point to prove.
Martin Thompson, 57, a quantity surveyor, from Solihull, West Mids, said: “There’s a growing feeling amongst the fans here that we can go all the way.
“We can clearly beat Senegal and then we’re into the final eight – and who knows what will happen?
“We were semi-finalists in Russia, losing finalists at the Euros last year and now we can go one better. Football really might be coming home.”
There will be at least 8,000 fans roaring on captain Kane’s men inside the stadium.
Thousands of tickets have been released for the match in the past 48 hours, leading to an online frenzy. Many were snapped up by expats in Dubai and Abu Dhabi who are flying in on 20 shuttle flights today to bolster our ranks.
