World Cup

England’s Oasis celebration fuels euphoria after Bellingham’s double

🇬🇧

England sealed a World Cup quarter‑final berth with a nerve‑shredding win over Mexico, highlighted by Jude Bellingham’s pair of goals scored within 98 seconds. The decisive strike duo gave the Three Lions the edge they needed to advance.

After the final whistle, the squad gathered with fans and belted out Oasis’s “Wonderwall” at full volume, turning the stadium into a makeshift concert hall. The celebration echoed through the stands, underscoring the team’s relief and joy.

Harry Kane admitted his voice was in worse shape than a penalty spot after the match, apologising to a BBC reporter for being unable to speak properly. He explained that constant singing had left him hoarse, a condition he described as “lost my voice”.

“It’s unbelievable. A crazy game. My God, we fought so hard. Unbelievable, the team, everything, it’s just unbelievable,” Kane said, despite his croaky tone. He compared his vocal strain to the penalty spot from which Kylian Mbappé fired France into the quarter‑finals against Paraguay.

Peter Crouch joined the post‑match festivities, sharing a moment with Kane that contributed to the captain’s vocal fatigue. Their interaction, filled with laughter and song, added to the night’s lively atmosphere.

Kane was not alone; the entire England squad emerged with similarly battered voices after the intense encounter. The collective loss of vocal strength highlighted the emotional and physical intensity of the game.

The 98‑second interval between Bellingham’s two goals offered fans a glimpse of England’s growing World Cup fever, confirming the team’s momentum. Supporters across the country have now caught the wave of euphoria sweeping the nation.

Looking ahead, England’s players dream of lifting the ultimate trophy, while Thomas Tuchel’s French side also eyes a finish with the golden prize in its luggage. The upcoming stages promise further drama for both nations.
