Prince George Makes Surprise Appearance at Euro 2020 Quarter Finals

The 7-year-old prince, who is known to attend Aston Villa games with football fan William, enjoyed his first England game while his sister and brother stayed at home.

William and Catherine were seen out on their feet cheering, but it was George who stole the limelight as he dressed in a suit matching his father's.

The friend revealed that George idolizes his dad and wanted to dress like him for the occasion.

The Duke would never have normally taken him to the football because it was an official outing in his role as president of the Football Association, but George absolutely begged to be allowed to come along.

The little royal, described as a pretty big character, twisted his parents' arms, and Kate came along so that when William had to meet all the dignitaries, George could stay with her.

George and his parents watched as the Three Lions triumphed over Germany, winning 2-0, thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling.

After the triumphant game at Wembley Stadium, the Duke and Duchess took to their official Twitter account to praise the team's incredible performance.

Before the match, George, who is an avid football enthusiast like his father, amused fans when he mumbled shyly while the stadium joined together with the players to sing God Save the Queen.

For the occasion, George donned a smart suit just like his father , with a similar tie in pink and blue teamed with a light blue shirt underneath.

The young prince swapped his usual shorts for trousers, which traditionally, royal boys don't start wearing until they are around 8 years old.

In 2019, George attended his first live game with his father to watch Aston Villa play against Norwich City.

Then for his fifth birthday picture that same year, the young Prince was photographed in his Three Lion t-shirt by his doting mother at Kensington Palace during the England Lionesses World Cup campaign.

At the time, it was understood to be one of his favourite items of clothing and George could frequently be seen running around the grounds of his home with a football at his feet.

It was a big moment for , who only steps into the spotlight with his parents on selected occasions.

The young prince has already shown a keen interest in sports, particularly football, and it seems he is following in his father's footsteps.

As the future king, Prince George's every move is watched closely by the public, and this surprise appearance at Wembley Stadium has only added to his growing popularity.
