Fans back home erupted in celebration and the beer went flying as England reached the World Cup semi-finals for the first time in 28 years on Saturday. At Flat Iron Square in London, where 650 people crammed in to watch on a giant screen, the party began with beer showers and chants of "Football's coming home" after the 2-0 win over Sweden in Russia. Friends leaped on one another's shoulders to belt out the song from the 1996 European Championships, an uplifting Britpop anthem of maintaining hope against precedent.
