One of the most anticipated matchups of the group stage at the 2026 FIFA World Cup was the showdown between England and Croatia at AT&T Stadium in Arlington (Dallas Stadium per FIFA) on Wednesday, June 17, and it exceeded expectations.

England scored two second-half goals to pull away in a 4-2 victory in front of 70,389 fans. England fans outnumbered Croatians by about a 3-1 margin, but most of the videos above were shot in the Croatian section (though two English women found themselves in this section).

The festivities started long before kickoff at the nearby entertainment venue Texas Live! with English fans staking out their area with flags and banners and singing their anthem "Football's Coming Home."

This is what a World Cup sounds like.
