The Prince of Wales was reunited with King Frederik of Denmark as the pair supported their respective teams at the England vs Denmark match at the 2024 Euros.
Prince William's appearance at the Frankfurt Arena in Germany on Thursday comes the day before his 42nd birthday.
The future king, a passionate Aston Villa fan, presented shirts to the England men's squad before the team left for the tournament, making a surprise visit to St George's Park, England’s national football centre in Burton upon Trent.
He also shared his youngest son Prince Louis' advice, who suggested the players "eat twice the amount" to secure their bid for Euros glory.
The Prince has been President of the Football Association since 2010.
It was a solo trip for William as the Princess of Wales continues with her cancer treatment. The couple's three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, were also unable to join him on a school night.
England got off to a positive start in Germany when Jude Bellingham scored a header 13 minutes into their Group C opener against Serbia on 16 June.

The Prince of Wales looked incredibly smart in a suit and tie as he headed to the match in Germany. Although Prince George is scheduled to appear at a future match, the young prince missed tonight's match, likely due to Friday being a school day.
