But supporters were left cringing at the singer's rendition of God Save The King before kick off.

The performer fumbled her words and appeared to sing the first line twice.

She was also seen putting her finger to her earpiece at the start of the anthem.

The home crowd booed loudly throughout the performance.

A fourth quipped: "Whoever this is singing the national anthem for England is embarrassing. Disgraceful."

Meanwhile, one exclaimed: "What the f*** was that National Anthem?"

Former Tottenham star Jamie O'Hara wrote on Twitter: "Wow national anthem was a shambles #England."

Declan Rice opened the scoring on 13 minutes for Southgate's side.

The England midfielder fired home with his left foot after a Harry Kane effort from a corner was blocked.

Kane himself then made it two with a penalty, becoming England's all-time top scorer in the process.
