The Three Lions look to avenge their agonizing 2-1 quarter final defeat in the 2022 World Cup against France. They’ve been given a bit of extra motivation by UK Prime Minister **Keir Starmer** , who has hinted at a potential extra bank holiday if they were to win it all.\n\n__Even if they do come out on top, they may not__ look__as cool as players from the Democratic Republic of Congo, who are sporting leopard-skin-embellished suits ahead of their first World Cup game in 52 years against Portugal today.__",
