England superfan Andy Milne says he is selling his house to fund a trip to watch the Three Lions at the World Cup this summer. The 62-year-old gained recognition after a photo of him wearing an England shirt while gleefully holding a replica World Cup trophy went viral during the 2022 tournament in Qatar. Milne, who attended his first World Cup in Spain in 1982, says he will be in the USA for seven weeks and has tickets for every game up to the final. Ticket prices for the World Cup have been widely criticised, with Football Supporters Europe filing a formal complaint against Fifa this week over its "excessive prices". Travel on the metro at the last World Cup in Qatar was free for ticket holders.
