Picture special of Kettering World Cup fan zone as supporters experience the ecstasy and agony of England vs Argentina

England supporters crammed into Kettering Town FC’s World Cup Fan Zone once again last night (Wednesday, July 15) to watch the World Cup 2026 semi-final against Argentina – first there were highs, and then there were lows.

The pre-match atmosphere with sing-a-long football songs provided a balm to calm the nerves.

As punters tucked into pizzas and beers, fans cheered on the team encouraging them every kick of the ball.

After the second half break-through with Anthony Gordon's goal, there were absolute scenes as beer flew in the air and strangers hugged.

But sadly, Argentina did what they do and scored two – much to the despair of the watching crowd.

Here’s to the World Cup 2030. Let’s do it again – Come on England!
