England has been overwhelmed with grief after its footballers missed out on being crowned champions in the Euro 2020 final on Sunday. This was the first time England appeared in the final for the European championships and victory seemed so tantalisingly close.
Grieving with the nation were those who are closest to the players of the England team – their spouses or partners.
England captain Harry Kane was seen consoling his wife Kate Kane at the end of the Euro 2020 soccer championship final match between England and Italy at Wembley stadium in London.
Kate covered her face and wept as her husband, the captain of the squad, embraced her after the game ended with bitter defeat for the home team.
Also present at Wembley was forward Raheem Sterling's fiancée, who shared a video of the couple’s children dancing at the stadium.  
Despite the wishes of Fern Hawkins, Harry Maguire’s intended, the England team did not “bring [football] home.” The centre-back’s partner posted his photo at Wembley on her Instagram account before the match, saying it was the closest she’s been to him in five weeks.
