Despite this the Three Lions went into the break 1-0 ahead following an own goal from Enrico Pepe after eight minutes.

But eagle-eyed fans found some excitement in the match when a paper aeroplane flew across the screen.

Reacting to the plane, one fan said: “Paper Aeroplane game the highlight of the first half.”

A second said: “That paper aeroplane might actually make the highlights.”

A third said: “People getting more excited about a paper aeroplane making the pitch than what bore fest is on the pitch. Sums up Southgate’s England.”

A fourth said: “Paper aeroplane went for miles there. Nearly at the half way line.”
