With less than 24 hours until England's future in the World Cup is decided in a match against Sweden, a new clip has emerged showing the Queen and Prince Charles watching the decisive match at Buckingham Palace. The hilarious video, which has been cleverly created from a documentary that was released back in 2016 to mark her Majesty's 90th birthday, shows the monarch and her son sat on sofas, watching the important match on a very large screen.

Thankfully, the clip which was shared by user Mike Ham, sees England defeat Sweden in a penalty shootout with the Queen saying at the end: "I think that was quite good," to which the Prince replies: "Yep."

England will play Sweden for a pass to the semi-finals on Saturday and although it is not certain that the Queen or Prince Charles will watch the match, there is one royal that will be glued to the screen – Prince William.

And earlier this week, the father-of-three watched the team beat Colombia in a penalty shootout. Minutes after the tense game ended, he took to twitter to send a rare personal message to the team, writing: I couldn’t be prouder of @england - a victory in a penalty shootout! You have well and truly earned your place in the final eight of the #worldcup and you should know the whole country is right behind you for Saturday! Come on England! W."
