The faces of the three supporters were, like so many others, adorned with face paint in the colours of the team they were supporting; Germany. In white football shirts they stood, preparing to watch the incredible semi-final between Brazil and Joachim Low’s men. Closer inspection revealed an anomaly. The replica shirts worn by the three fans weren’t those of Germany but were nonetheless familiar, although they hadn’t been visible at this World Cup for some time. The trio were sporting the Three Lions of England, each of them clinging to a hand-drawn banner that read: “Look what you’ve done to us Roy!” England’s continued failure at major tournaments has, if nothing else, numbed the pain of defeat. While the nature of this latest below-par showing may have surprised a few, for most, a shrug of the shoulders and a shake of the head was all it warranted before we settled down to watch the rest of the world show us how it should and could be done.
