England supporters are so giddy at the World Cup fever that they started sharing a fake tweet from defender Harry Maguire.
After beating Sweden to reach the semi-finals, the Three Lions is within touching distance of lifting the trophy for only the second time.
One of those heroes is Maguire, who scored the opener against Sweden with a thumping header as he continued his impressive showing in Russia.
After Maguire's goal, an images of a supposed tweet by the Leicester City man back in 2016 went viral.
It's a brilliant tweet - except, sadly, it does not appear to be real - with the person who created the fake tweet sending an apology to BBC pundit Gary Lineker, who had retweeted it.
Whilst many people were hugely disappointed to find out that the tweet was not genuine.
