England Fan Andy Milne: A Constant Fixture at Euro MatchesEngland Fan Andy Milne: A Constant Fixture at Euro Matches Andy Milne, an ardent England fan, has become a familiar face on television screens throughout Euro 2024. He was spotted in the front row during the Three Lions’ 1-0 victory over Serbia and their subsequent 1-1 draw with Denmark. Milne first gained viral fame in 2022 when he was captured on camera supporting England at the World Cup in Qatar, holding up a replica of the trophy during a 3-0 triumph against Senegal. Known as a “Steve McClaren lookalike,” he has reportedly supported the Three Lions both home and abroad for over four decades. In the match against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen, Milne was seen pumping his fists before the start and at the close of the game. As usual, he cheered his team on from the front row. BBC News’ Faisal Islam even revealed that Milne was his former biology teacher. Despite his enthusiastic support, Milne appeared more subdued during the draw with Denmark. There was also speculation on social media if he was the same person spotted in the crowd during England’s Euro 96 quarter-final victory over Spain. In Euro 2024, England began their campaign with a 1-0 win over Serbia, courtesy of a goal by Jude Bellingham. The Three Lions then drew 1-1 against Denmark, with Harry Kane scoring England’s goal. As England continues its Euro 2024 journey, Andy Milne remains a symbol of unwavering support for the Three Lions. His presence on the sidelines has become a familiar sight, a testament to his passion for the sport and his team.
England fan Andy Milne has been spotted on TV during both of his country’s matches at Euro 2024 so far.
He was seen in the front row for the Three Lions’ 1-0 win over Serbia in their opening match and again in the 1-1 draw with Denmark – although he looked dejected then.
Milne first went viral when she was filmed supporting England at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, holding up a replica of the trophy during a 3-0 win over Senegal.
Some on social media say he is a “Steve McClaren lookalike” and has supported the Three Lions home and away for more than 40 years.
Milne was spotted again in the TV coverage of the match against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen, pumping his fists both before the match started and towards the end of the match.
As always, he was filmed cheering on his team from the front row.
BBC News’ Faisal Islam also pointed out that Milne is his old biology teacher.
He was spotted in the front row again during the 1-1 draw between England and Denmark, although this time he looked a lot more somber.
There was also a viral Tweet going around asking if he was the one spotted in the crowd during England’s Euro 96 quarter-final win over Spain.
England got their Euro 2024 campaign off to a winning start with a 1-0 win over Serbia; Jude Bellingham scored the only goal of the match in the 13th minute, converting a deflected cross from Bukayo Saka.
That was followed by a 1-1 draw against Denmark.
Captain Harry Kane scored in the first 20 minutes after Kyle Walker won the ball impressively high up the pitch. His ball across the penalty area was deflected a couple of times before reaching Kane, who fired home from close range.
However, that goal was cancelled out in the 34th minute when England failed to get out and close out Denmark, with Morten Hjulmand firing in from distance off the post to score his first ever international goal.
Neither side were able to find a winner then, with Denmark having the better of the game and England sitting deep; although England came closest to taking the lead after Phil Foden hit the post in the second half.
