Old days ... England's Wayne Rooney keeps quiet as John Terry sings anthem
England fans were scrambling for flights to Kiev yesterday after Rooney revealed fantastic support had helped secure this week’s win over Ukraine.
Up to 10,000 Lionhearts are expected to flood the Ukrainian capital to cheer on the lads — twice the number at our last game in Donetsk.
Expectations were low before the Euros but three solid performances have sparked a surge in travelling support.
Website CheapFlights.co.uk said inquiries for flights to Euro 2012 airports rose by more than 800 per cent in the three hours before, during and after Tuesday’s 1-0 win over Ukraine.
The FA confirmed England’s official allocation of quarter-final tickets had sold out, but UEFA said general tickets were still available.
Elsewhere, fans were also battling to grab flights to Poland next week — convinced England will beat Italy and land a semi-final date in Warsaw.
Ticket website cheapoair.co.uk showed only a handful of the cheapest UK to Warsaw flights available next week, including Lufthansa fares from £333.
