'I just can't believe it': England fans' agony as Three Lions crash out of World Cup in penalty heartache again
Just moments after the final whistle Don't Look Back In Anger came blasting through the speakers. But not even a crowd of more than 7,000 Mancs could muster a sing-a-long.
Making your way into the sprawling former warehouse opposite Piccadilly Station which for the duration of this tournament has been home to Europe's largest fan park, it felt like you were going to the match itself, with merchandise sellers flogging England scarves and flags, and chants of 'it's coming home' from fan anthem Three Lions echoing around the queue.
There was particular ire reserved for the officials with chants of 'the referee's a w***er' booming around following numerous contentious decisions in the first half, and there were loud boos as the cameras panned on him. Pints of beer went flying through the air. The standing section was a sea of arms and legs whilst those in the seated section flung themselves on tables and into the safety barriers. People hugged strangers and friends with equal intensity.
But the crowd began to celebrate from the moment the referee jogged over to the VAR monitor to have another look.
