IN the eyes of many, Warringtonian footballer Jesse Lingard was highly unfortunate to miss out on England's squad for Euro 2020.
However, the Longford lad was keen to show his support for those who did make it as the Three Lions opened their campaign today.

Raheem Sterling's second-half winner at Wembley meant Gareth Southgate's side opened their Group D campaign with a 1-0 victory.
