A Lincolnshire man has been growing support for England in the World Cup by teaching children in Vietnam to sing Three Lions ahead of tonight’s crucial game.

Viet Nam News shared the video of teacher Jake Stanley singing with pupils at a school in Hanoi where he works.

Jake, from Grantham, is seen in the video teaching his pupils ‘It’s coming home’ so the children can cheer on England.

The video has been aired on Viet Nam News website and its Facebook page.

During the video, Jake said: “The passion Vietnamese have for football is incredible. Bringing education into it, bringing the football songs in to the classroom, the kids respond brilliantly to that and it really engages the children with learning English.

“I think learning ‘It’s coming home’ and obviously it is coming home, the kids really respond to that.”

And judging by their reaction in the video, they all love it.

One of Jake’s pupils added: “I usually play football with my parents. I watch the World Cup and I like the England team.”

England take on Croatia tonight in the World Cup semi-finals.

This is the first time England has made it to the semi-finals since 1990.

If they win, they will play France in the final on Sunday, July 15.
