This is the incredible reaction from England supporters at a fan park as the first goal of the EURO 2020 quarter-final went in.

Raheem Sterling drove past the Ukraine defence and picked out a beautiful pass for the caption, whose finish slipped past the goal keeper.

As the ball hit the back of the net, supporters at a fan park in Trafford went wild.

Incredible scenes were caught on camera as groups of fans celebrated the early chance for England.

Pints were launched into the air, with revellers clambering on top of picnic tables to make noise for the team.

Other groups donning England shirts and waterproof ponchos could be seen hugging each other in amazement.

As the sun sets on Manchester, the mood at the fan park is electric, as fans wait on tenterhooks for a hopeful second goal.

Tables of six separated by metal fencing means fans can watch the game on a big screen with the kind of atmosphere we've all missed over the last 18 months.

Elsewhere across the city, fans have packed out the Northern Quarter, Spinningfields and Ancoats to enjoy the game.

A yellow warning for thunderstorms has been issued for much of the region, but that hasn't dampened spirits.
