Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has joined the online commentary surrounding England captain Harry Kane's hoarse voice after a post-match celebration. Kane, 32, led his teammates and fans in a rousing rendition of the Oasis hit "Wonderwall" following England's 3-2 World Cup victory over Mexico.
Following the match, Kane's interview with the BBC was notably strained, with the player admitting he could "barely speak" after singing. Social media quickly buzzed with reactions to his croaky delivery.
Gallagher, 53, took to social media platform X to share his amusement, writing, "It’s hard work that singing Harry Kane cmon ENGLAND cmon WONDERWALL." His comment was met with enthusiasm from fans.
Some followers urged Gallagher to perform "Wonderwall" live if England reached the tournament final. He responded with "We’ll see I’m ready" and added, "Oh I’ll show Harry how it’s done."
Kane described the match as "crazy" and highlighted the team's resilience. "We had to fight and we had to find something," he told the BBC. "I've just been singing, I can't really talk. The occasion, the team, everything against us, we found a way... It was one of those days where the ref gave a lot against us. In the end it didn't matter. I'm happy. Incredible, unbelievable support. [I'm] speechless!"
The "Wonderwall" singalong has become a recurring celebration for England during the competition. Kane's wife, Kate, and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford's wife, Megan, were among those celebrating in the stands. Approximately 15,000 England fans were estimated to have secured tickets for the match in Mexico City, with thousands more watching in local establishments and millions back home.
Jude Bellingham scored two goals in quick succession in the first half, and Kane converted a penalty after halftime, contributing to England's lead. The team faced a tense final period after being reduced to ten men.
