There were some Great British Replies™ to Fox’s England pisstake after USA’s World Cup win
You’ll know by now that England suffered World Cup heartbreak at the hands of the USA last night.
As if the 2-1 semi-final win wasn’t exciting enough, Fox over in the US thought they’d do a spoof Love Actually video just to, you know, rub it in and all that.
We're sorry, England. 🇺🇸😂 pic.twitter.com/hhu0yWLhz8

And it prompted some very British replies on Twitter, of which these are the best.

I realise we burned down your white house that one time but can we try to remember sportsmanship and that it's "football" not whatever the fuck "soccer" might be. Thank you.

What is ‘sorry’ is that you had someone prepare this in advance, and that says a lot more about you than it does England. We wouldn’t have done the same thing if England had won, because we have class and respect #fifawwc #eng #respect

Not sure the @BBCSport would do something like this. Kinda classless no?

Wow. Completely lacking in class. Not cool at all. Winners completely lacking in any grace. And I’m Welsh! Wales V England – now that’s a proper rivalry……. Hope USA manage to find some humility by the Final.

The actual state of this 😂😂😂 In FOOTBALL it’s largely about behaving with respect. Stay Classy 🙄 embarrassing, this.

As an Englishman, I’m totally unaware of a rivalry. Is there one? Scotland – yes. Germany- hell yes. Argentina- most definitely but USA.. 🤔
