Wills shared his thoughts in a tweet after the match: “Nail biting to the very end. Well done @England! Semi-finals here we come! We believe. W.”
The roaring Prince of Wales was snapped celebrating Bukayo Saka’s triumphant penalty by throwing his fists in the air.
The Three Lions have now reached the semi-finals after the shootout and a heroic 90th minute goal from Saka.
William could be seen before the match shaking hands and speaking with dignitaries and appeared to be in a chipper mood ahead of the do-or-die clash.
New Prime Minister Keir Starmer wished the team well before the match, saying in a post on X: “You’ve got this @England.”
Wills’ attendance comes after the Prince of Wales, a passionate Aston Villa fan, presented shirts to the England men’s squad before the team left for Germany.
He made a surprise visit to St George’s Park, England’s national football centre in Burton upon Trent.
Wills also shared his youngest son Prince Louis‘ advice, who suggested the players “eat twice the amount” to secure their bid for Euros glory.
England skipper Harry Kane jokingly said: “I don’t think our nutritionist will be happy with that advice.”
The Prince of Wales was seen emotionally applauding during the national anthem and took a picture with the King of Denmark before kick-off.
