Liam Gallagher is one of many figures from the entertainment world celebrating the England football team’s latest Euro 2020 victory.
The former Oasis frontman took to Twitter after the game to tweet the famous ‘It’s coming home’ refrain from ‘Three Lions’, the 1996 track by David Baddiel, Frank Skinner, and the Lightning Seeds, which has become one of the country’s most enduring football anthems.
Joining Gallagher in referencing the iconic track were the likes of Yungblud, Gorillaz, and Ed Sheeran, the latter of whom shared a video of himself telling fans: “Guys, I don’t know if you’ve heard the news: it’s coming home.” You can see the posts below.

England beat Ukrane four goals to nil at Stadio Olimpico, Roma, Italy, this evening (July 3) to send them through to the semi-finals of the competition. The last time they reached the Euros semi finals was in 1996 when they lost to Germany on penalties.
Harry Styles was among the celebrities in attendance at the match, with a fan posting a pair of photos of the singer after meeting him at the stadium.

No team has scored against us. No-one! This is the new England. With players and a manager that stand for something outside of football
too. It’s coming home – the right way! #eng #Euro2020— michelle gayle (@michellegayle1) July 3, 2021
