Brian May shares how touring with Queen has affected how he watches the Euro 2020 final
Like millions of Brits, Queen guitarist Brian May will be watching the Euro 2020 final between England and Italy tonight. And now in a new Instagram post, the rock legend has shared how touring all over the world has affected how he will view the football match this evening. The 73-year-old shared a picture of the England team huddling around captain Harry Kane after he scored a goal in a previous game.
Brian wrote: “I find this picture very moving – as well as a work of art in itself.
“On the day of the big Euro football final, here in the UK, there’s a massive surge of energy – it’s everywhere – because the English football Squad hasn’t got to the final of an international match since 1966 !
“I got all fired up the other night and played a bit of the English football ‘anthem’ on IG. And it was a very sincere feeling that drove that.”
The 73-year-old said how he felt it would be false of him to pretend he was a dyed-in-the-wool football fan, but remembers watching England win the World Cup in 1966.
