Fans mock Katy Perry for raising the wrong flag before her match

Katy Perry fans were forced to correct the singer after she shared a message wishing the England football team good luck in the Euros 2024 final on Sunday.

The singer seemed excited about the hotly-anticipated match between England and Spain, which kicked-off at 8pm in Berlin, Germany.

Taking to X — formerly known as Twitter — the Roar songstress penned, ‘football is coming home’ followed by the flag for the United Kingdom.

However, fans were quick to slam Katy for using the wrong flag, and corrected her by commenting the England flag, a red cross white a white background.

England, go into the game as underdogs, with Spain winning all six of their matches so far, with the Three Lions playing out four draws in 90 minutes.

It comes as Gareth delivered an emotional message to his England heroes ahead of their date with destiny: ‘Go and fulfil your dreams.’.

The national team faced Spain in the final of Euro 2024 on Sunday night following a tumultuous tournament, and Southgate said:

‘I don’t believe in fairytales, but I am a believer in dreams, and we have big dreams, but you have to make those things happen.

‘The run we have had, late goals, penalties, but that doesn’t equate to us making it happen. We have to perform.

‘When you try to create dreams, you need a vision to go with that. That lights a small fire. We know what it would mean (to win).’

The England men’s side haven’t won a major trophy since World Cup 1966, and Southgate added: ‘We have to get this trophy to get the respect of the rest of the football world.
