The families of England stars were exposed to beer showers during an angry fan revolt in Cologne. WAGs, family members, and loved ones witnessed disgraceful scenes when England boss Southgate went over to the fans at the end of the game. Some family members were sitting in a general admission area opposite the tunnel and were not targeted, but witnessed cups raining down from above, with some getting drenched in beer. England defender Ezri Konsa revealed that his brother was caught up in the incident, and other family members also witnessed it and were affected.
He stated that the reaction towards Southgate was unpleasant, and players were concerned about their children’s safety. Despite being aware of the situation, the players chose not to dwell on it. They checked on their family members, recognizing it as part of the game, and tried to move on. This is not the first time family members have been involved in trouble, as during the last Euros final at Wembley, ticketless hooligans invaded the section where WAGs were seated, and some were attacked.
The team will also discuss the location of the family section in Gelsenkirchen due to previous stadium issues. Konsa emphasized the need for a better performance against Slovakia on Sunday but expressed confidence that they will turn things around, acknowledging that sometimes in football things go their way, and sometimes they don’t.
