England's players found themselves on the receiving end of boos from their own fans before a ball had even been kicked on Wednesday night. The booing, which was acknowledged by ITV Sport commentator Sam Matterface as "a mixed reaction," prompted a wave of social media reaction as fans took to Twitter to voice their displeasure at the booing fans on Teeside. "Disgraceful that some football fans would boo the players taking the knee," tweeted one, while another went further in his condemnation of those who booed.
