Huge crowds packed into the bar for the win over Norway

Peterborough’s Charters Bar is asking England fans to arrive early to secure their spot for the Three Lions’ World Cup semi-final clash against Argentina.

Huge crowds packed into the riverside bar for the quarter-final win over Norway, where two goals from Jude Bellingham secured England’s place in the final four.

A spokesperson from the bar told the Peterborough Telegraph that fans should arrive as early as possible for the game on Wednesday (July 15) to avoid disappointment.

Entry is free and fans can either watch the game on a giant LED screen in the beer garden or in the barge.

Fans are reminded that no under 18s will be allowed in to watch the game.

There were jubilant scenes across Peterborough in the early hours of Sunday morning (July 12) as Thomas Tuchel’s men joined Spain, France and Argentina in the semi-finals.

Should England make it past old rivals Argentina, they will play in their first World Cup final in 60 years.
