Three Lions has been sung wrong for years

Last night England beat Wales 3-0. Today, Three Lions is the biggest and best football anthem of all time. The lyrics are incorrect. The second line of the song refers to a former FIFA boss.

Last night England won a match against Wales 3-0. Today, Three Lions is the biggest and best football anthem of all time. The song's lyrics have been misheard by many football fans. It is not the nation's favourite football song. Sweet Caroline is. The UK's most popular football Anthem is Sweet Carries. Neil Diamond's 1969 song is also the UK’s most famous football hit. Jules Rimet was the third FIFA President. He held the first FIFA World Cup in 1930. In 1966, the Jule Rimets Trophy was stolen from Westminster Central Hall.
