England fans sing to Sweden fans as they mingle with each other in the fanzone in Kiev, Ukraine during Euro 2012

England fans sing to Sweden fans as they mingle with each other in the fanzone in Kiev, Ukraine during Euro 2012

England’s travelling army of football fans have prepared for Friday’s match with Sweden by taking on their counterparts in a singing contest.

Rowdy fans lined up opposite each other in Kiev, Ukraine, to belt out songs and and drink in the pouring rain.

Hundreds of noisy supporters – wearing their countries’ colours of red and white, and yellow and blue, were getting in the mood for the key Euro 2012 clash as they enjoyed the fun in the fan zone.

Security personnel struggled to keep both sets of fans apart as the chanting became more vociferous.

But the atmosphere was generally good natured, with the fans choosing to hug each other rather than throw punches after spending all day drinking ahead of the match at the Olympic Stadium.

At one point thunder and lightning sent thousands of supporters – who were watching Spain play Ireland on big screens – scurrying for shelter.

But a number of the England fans ignored the horrendous downpour, removed their shirts and sang “let’s all have a disco”.

Thousands more Three Lions supporters are expected to pour into Kiev throughout Friday, although they will still be heavily outnumbered by the Swedes. An estimated 20,000 fans from Scandinavia have travelled to Ukraine, compared to just 5,000 from England.

Meanwhile, Westminster Council said it will have a team of 54 road sweepers working throughout London’s West End until 10pm and another 24 sweepers continuing on until 6am with fans expected to pack bars and pubs to enjoy the football.

A council spokesman said: “It is clearly going to be a very busy night in the West End with people out enjoying the football in various venues. Our street crews can be deployed to wherever there might be any issues, so we will have the streets looking good again for Saturday morning.”
