Liam Gallagher has responded to Harry Kane losing his voice singing Oasis’ “Wonderwall” following England’s epic FIFA World Cup win against Mexico on Sunday night (July 6).

The Three Lions saw off Mexico at the legendary Estadio Azteca in Mexico City in a 3-2 thriller in one of the most thrilling games of the tournament. Jude Bellingham scored twice in quick succession in the first half to put the visitors in front, with the team’s captain Kane extending the scoreline with a second-half penalty. England’s Jarell Quansah was later sent off with a red card for a rash challenge, leaving England a man down for the rest of the game as Mexico scored two goals to ensure a nail-biting finale.

Following the final whistle, the England squad sang Oasis’ “Wonderwall” in front of the supporters who had made the trip to the iconic Mexico City stadium. At the 2026 tournament, it has become a tradition for the England fans and players to share a singalong of the 1995 Britpop classic, having done so following matches against Croatia, Ghana, Panama and DR Congo.

However Kane was left with little to no voice following the rendition, with the captain struggling through an interview with BBC Sport saying that “I’ve just been singing there. I can’t really talk.”

Following the interview broadcast, Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher wrote on X, “It’s hard work that singing Harry Kane cmon ENGLAND cmon WONDERWALL.”

Another England player came away from the singalong wounded, with Brentford midfielder Jordan Henderson seriously injuring his wrist after falling over advertising boards on his way back from the Oasis-coded celebration with fans. He had to be stretchered off by medical staff.

England will play Norway in the quarter final round of the tournament on Saturday (July 11) in Miami.
