Maybe... ‘Wonderwall’? England’s viral World Cup singalong sparks Three Lions anthem campaign (VIDEO)

LONDON, June 19 — England’s emphatic World Cup victory over Croatia has given fans more than three points to celebrate — it may also have handed the Three Lions a brand-new anthem.

Moments after England’s entertaining 4-2 win in Dallas on Wednesday, thousands of supporters stayed behind to belt out Oasis’ 1995 classic Wonderwall, creating one of the tournament’s standout scenes so far.

The emotional singalong quickly went viral after BBC Sport shared footage showing England stars including Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Anthony Gordon appearing visibly moved as they applauded supporters and joined in with the chorus.

The clip even caught the attention of Oasis themselves, with both the band’s official social media accounts and Liam Gallagher reposting the footage.

Now, the post-match moment has snowballed into something much bigger, with UK’s The Sun throwing its weight behind calls for Wonderwall to become England’s official anthem for the rest of the Fifa World Cup.

The campaign has already attracted support from former England captain Terry Butcher, the England Supporters Band and even the UK’s ambassador to the United States.

“I’ve been with fans at eight World Cups but have never seen anything quite like that Wonderwall performance,” England Supporters Band leader John Hemmingham told The Sun.

“Every England fan in the stands joined in at the top of their voice and I saw even Harry and Jude joining in. It was quite a moment.”

The band is now rushing to add the Oasis favourite to its setlist ahead of England’s next group match against Ghana.

“Our biggest problem is that we don’t know Wonderwall — but don’t worry, we’re busy learning it for the next game and it’s going to be fantastic,” Hemmingham added.

“It’s a brilliant anthem and will carry us all the way to the final.”

Former England defender Terry Butcher is also firmly on board, declaring that Wonderwall deserves to replace Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline, which has become a familiar soundtrack at England matches in recent years.

“Wonderwall is a great song,” he said.

“Everyone knows the words, and the fact it comes from Manchester, one of England’s most patriotic cities, makes it a perfect anthem.

“It sounded great when the fans were belting it out — and thankfully it isn’t Sweet Caroline!”

According to The Sun, Noel and Liam Gallagher are said to be delighted their signature hit has become the soundtrack of England’s World Cup campaign.

A source close to the brothers said: “They’ve seen the clips and are thrilled. It never got to No. 1 and this could lead to it getting back in the charts.”

The football connection is perhaps unsurprising. Noel and Liam Gallagher have long been among Manchester City’s most famous supporters, with Oasis songs becoming staples at football stadiums across Britain over the years.

Although England has not adopted an official song for its 2026 World Cup campaign, supporters have revived several familiar terrace favourites, including Three Lions, Sweet Caroline and Gala’s Freed From Desire. The team’s goal music at this year’s tournament is Planet Funk’s Chase The Sun, another sporting favourite thanks to its popularity at darts events.

Whether Wonderwall officially becomes England’s anthem remains to be seen, but after one unforgettable night in Dallas, it is already proving to be the soundtrack of the Three Lions’ World Cup adventure.

England next face Ghana on Tuesday before rounding off the group stage against Panama.
