A WORCESTER football fan was so angry with England's performance against Belgium last night that he walked out of the stadium early.

Robert Blundell, aged 49, watched the World Cup game in Kaliningrad with his son Thomas, 20.

England lost the final group game 1-0 and will now face Colombia in the last-16.

Mr Blundell said: "I genuinely feel I've been made a fool of because he changed the team so much.

"You've got to win every game. You've got to keep momentum, play strikers when they are hot. You've got to play them all to win.

"I've been watching England away for 20 years and it's the first time I've come away feeling I've been made a fool of.

"I've got a ticket for the final but I think I'll be getting a refund."

England manager Gareth Southgate rested the team's captain Harry Kane and star players Raheem Sterling, Jesse Lingard and Jordan Henderson after a public debate about whether it was wiser to
finish second in the group to gain a potentially easier route to the final.
