After the England squad demolished Iran 6-2 in their opening match of the Qatar World Cup today, the team’s WAGs couldn’t resist taking to social media to celebrate their joy and relief.
Captain Harry Kane’s wife Katie, Raheem Sterling’s fiancée Paige Milian and Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood led the footballers’ partners posting their pride to social media following this afternoon’s win at the Khalifa Stadium in Doha.
Katie shared an adorable family photo, with Harry posing in the stands with his two of his three children after the match, while Sasha shared an image of her man to her Instagram stories with the caption: ‘So proud of you xxx’.
Meanwhile, model Paige, 27, could be seen in Instagram snaps flicking a victory sign as she wore the new Three Lions jersey while standing with the son she shares with Raheem, Thiago, five, and his daughter from his relationship with his ex-girlfriend Melissa Clarke, Melody Rose, 10.
Following their game, the England squad rushed to celebrate with their loved ones in the stands; Grealish was pictured sharing a cuddle with his girlfriend to celebrate the win, while captain Harry was seen hugging his children after the match.
His youngsters were just some of the squad’s mini supporters seen filling up the stand today, with Phil Foden’s son in attendance at the match, alongside Harry Maguire’s daughters, who sported shirts with their father’s name emblazoned on the back.
Today’s match saw Gareth Southgate’s wonderkids Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka score three goals. Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford and Grealish grabbed the other three in a superb performance.
Thousands of Three Lions supporters were in the stadium including the WAGs and David Beckham while millions watched at home, work or in pubs with high streets across the UK deserted as people settled down for the 1pm match. There were wild scenes at pubs and fanparks across the UK as England thrashed the Iranians.
But the game was overshadowed by the row with FIFA over Kane’s proposed rainbow armband and ticket woes for fans trying to get into the stadium after the Qatar 2022 app failed.

The rout began when Birmingham-born Borussia Dortmund wonderkid Bellingham, 19, sent thousands of fans in the stadium wild – and millions at home – as he rose to nod home after a cross from Manchester United’s Luke Shaw. He made history with the header as he became the second teenager in history to score in a World Cup for England, after Michael Owen against Argentina in 1998.
Minutes later Saka, 21, smashed home a left foot shot off the crossbar. And then Sterling, 27, blasted in a volley following a cross from captain Harry Kane, effectively winning the game before half time.
In the second half Saka then grabbed a fourth goal – his second – with an hour on the clock, passing it into the net after a mazy run. He became the youngest England player to score two at a World Cup.
Southgate’s side would not be able to boast a clean sheet however, Iran striker Mehdi Taremi pegged back England with a fierce strike past Pickford.
Rashford scored and restored a four goal advantage to make it 5-1. Grealish then made it 6-1 with a minute to go, doing ‘the worm’ as a celebration after a promise to a 11-year-old Manchester City fan with cerebral palsy. Jack’s sister also has the condition.
Pickford made a superb stop from Sardar Azmoun in the latter stages of 10 minutes of injury time before Iran were awarded a penalty after a VAR check. John Stones was adjudged to have pulled the shirt of Taremi, who then sent Pickford the wrong way to reduce the arrears to 6-2 with the last kick of the game.
The Three Lions could have had at least eight goals. They were denied a clear penalty just three minutes into the game, when Maguire was clearly dragged down in the box. Maguire later headed against the crossbar.
England took the knee as they started their first World Cup campaign against Iran in one of the most politically-charged matches in English football history after a row over wearing a rainbow captain’s armband for Harry Kane, which was dropped after pressure from FIFA.
Kane looked serious as he led the team on to the pitch. The England captain did not wear the ‘OneLove’ rainbow armband after the threat of a yellow card proved too much of a risk for the FA. Alan Shearer said today that Kane had been put in an impossible position ahead of one of the biggest games of his career, but added that he would probably have worn the armband himself.
Kane was wearing the official FIFA ‘No Discrimination’ armband, having removed his England jacket following the national anthems. Loud whistles greeted the Iranian anthem, with the whole Iran team opting not to sing.
The entire England team then took the knee and Harry Kane appeared to raise his fist – but the Iranians did not take part.
Before the goals rained in, England fans were furious by the failure to award the Three Lions a penalty just three minutes into their World Cup opener.
England had an early corner which was taken by Kieran Trippier and Harry Maguire appeared to be dragged down by Iranian defender Roozbeh Cheshmi.
Shortly afterwards the match was stopped for 10 minutes after a head injury to Iran’s goalkeeper, who was replaced. Maguire then hit the crossbar with a header as England dominated.
Bellingham would go one better shortly afterwards, the Borussia Dortmund midfielder looping a header home from Luke Shaw’s cross to break the deadlock 10 minutes before the interval.

Bukayo Saka’s girlfriend Tolami Benson, 22 was spotted documenting the game today in which her boyfriend scored two of England’s six goals
Saka would double the lead before the break, thrashing home a fine volley from a Maguire header down to banish his penalty miss of last summer.
With the fourth official signalling 14 minutes of added time, England grabbed their third through Raheem Sterling, who finished Kane’s cross after some great build-up from Southgate’s side.
England grabbed their fourth as Saka scored his second of the game, cutting in from the right to curl home.
Southgate’s side would not be able to boast a clean sheet however, Porto striker Mehdi Taremi pulling one back for Iran with a fierce strike past Pickford.
Maguire was forced off in the immediate aftermath of the goal as Eric Dier came on, while Saka, Sterling and Mount were replaced by Marcus Rashford, Jack Grealish and Phil Foden.
Rashford, who like Saka was racially abused after missing from the spot against Italy, had not featured for England since that night but he needed just seconds to make it 5-1 with a cool finish.
Two more of Southgate’s substitutes combined for a late sixth as Wilson ran onto a Bellingham through-ball before unselfishly crossing for Grealish for just his second England goal.
Pickford made a superb stop from Sardar Azmoun in the latter stages of 10 minutes of injury time before Iran were awarded a penalty after a VAR check.
John Stones was adjudged to have pulled the shirt of Taremi, who then sent Pickford the wrong way to reduce the arrears to 6-2 with the last kick of the game.
Fans erupted in cheers of joy as the final whistle sealed an England victory in their first World Cup game.
Far from the usual designer outfits and glitzy pieces which WAGs might be best known, the footballers’ partners mostly opted for low-key ensembles for the occasion – wearing shirts with their partner’s name emblazoned on the back, which many tucked into comfortable jeans.
This morning, many shared snaps from their new home aboard the MSC World Europa – a luxury cruise liner dubbed a ‘floating palace’ which is set to host them for the duration of the tournament.
The incredible £1billion cruise liner – which usually costs £2,434.80 for nine nights – has set up base at Doha Port ready to accommodate the footballers’ families.
Before kick-off, Saka‘s girlfriend Tolami Benson, 22, appeared in high spirits as she grabbed a seat alongside the player’s brother, with both wearing matching England shirts to show their support to the team.
Meanwhile Phil Foden‘s partner Rebecca Cooke was snapped alongside Lauren Fryer, girlfriend of Declan Rice, as they took their place within the stadium.
Rebecca, who was photographed apparently discussing her seating in the stadium with an official, appeared overjoyed as she spotted Foden come out onto the pitch and threw her arms into the air with joy.
Before the match, Tolami 22, who is dating Saka, shared a snap online as she posed in an England shirt, while Kennedy Alexa, whose boyfriend is James Maddison, posted a photo of their son wearing a football kit.
Meanwhile Paige Millan, who is Raheem Sterling’s partner, posted a video of their children walking along while wearing shirt’s with Sterling across the back.
She also shared a number of videos showing the cruise ship. Last night, she shared a clip as she apparently boarded, which showed the outside of the enormous boat
Meanwhile, thousands of England fans descended on Qatar and had managed to sniff out £12 pints ahead of the team’s first match of the World Cup today – but some told MailOnline their trips have cost £50,000 and criticised the lack of atmosphere in Doha before the big game.
Supporters packed out hotels, sports bars and Irish pubs before heading to the Khalifa Stadium for the 1pm kick off UK time where booze has been banned by the Gulf state’s Emir at the 11th hour.

But they endured chaotic scenes outside the Khalifa stadium after their tickets disappeared from the FIFA app on their mobile phones.
Thousands of fans queued in the searing heat as they stared at their mobile phones wondering why their electronic tickets had disappeared.
England fans then received an email from FIFA which contained a QR code to allow them to enter the stadium. Most tickets for games at the tournament are electronic. Angry fans labelled FIFA a farce claiming that the technical glitch had spoiled their fun of the pre-match build up.
Sanjay Puri, 36 from Birmingham fumed: ‘It’s a joke. You would have thought that FIFA would have their IT in order. How has something like this happened?’
Paul Sims, 40 who had travelled from Dubai said: ‘I was outside the stadium and about to use my electronic ticket but then a message appeared saying it wasn’t working. Luckily I got an email with a QR code but I had to wait more than an hour to get in.’
Further chaos resulted from stadium security that every is scanned along with fan identity cards to ensure it belongs to the right person. Security also confiscated items like sun cream, sweets and snacks further causing delays and annoying fans.
Selfies from the stadium! A number of WAGs went on to share snaps from the event – including Georgina Irwin, who was seated alongside her future in laws
Meanwhile Amie shared several snaps as she posed outside the stadium with her three sons whom she shares with England player Conor Coady

WAGs and player’s families arrived on the luxury cruise liner yesterday after jetting off from the UK to support the squad.
Guests will be living the high life thanks to onboard beauty salons, boutiques, dodgems, 14 ocean-view Jacuzzis and the longest dry-slide at sea titled The Venom Drop to keep them entertained between matches.
But while the WAGs will lap up the luxury of the swanky ship – complete with its very own shopping mall, roller disco rink and a range of clubs for children – it’s said that players won’t be allowed on board as they are set to form their own strict Covid bubble at the Souq Al Wakra hotel in Doha.
Elsewhere on the cruise liner, a Sportplex zone offers basketball, bumper cars and even a roller disco rink, meaning plenty of opportunities for fun, alongside more than 30 bars and cafes, as well as a micro-brewery and mixology classes in its Elixir gin bar.

An insider previously told the publication: ‘The boat is an amazing place to stay. It is like a floating palace, which is why many of the players’ wives and families quickly snapped up packages that the Football Association arranged.
‘Due to the fact the boat is off shore, guests can have a drink and enjoy themselves without having to worry about falling foul of Qatar’s strict rules.
‘And many hotels aren’t even allowed sunbathing areas. But by staying on the boat guests just relax and have a great time. If England do go all the way it’s likely to become like a carnival on board.’
A former Wag who was in Russia for the 2018 World Cup told Mailonline that the women had been swapping messages on Whatsapp with fears over their freedom to meet with the players due to Covid rules and the strict restrictions in Qatar.
Wives, girlfriends and family members of the footballers were seen piling into Manchester airport yesterday to catch a short flight to London before hopping on another plane for the seven-hour journey to Qatar
Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood is pictured arriving at the check-in desk at Manchester airport with a whopping four large suitcases
She said: ‘There are coronavirus rules they have to follow as well as the fact that holding hands and kissing in Qatar is forbidden.
‘The women don’t know what to make of it all. One asked me the other night if she could be arrested for posing in her bikini on Instagram.
‘Many of the girls also have young babies and children, so we don’t think there will be as big a turnout as in recent years.’
In Qatar there are strict alcohol rules, but because the MSC World Europa is ‘off-shore’, those on board can sip on champagne without fear of legal repercussions.
However the WAGs have been told they should dress modestly if they are out and about in Qatar.

At least three WAGs have turned to personal stylists to ensure they don’t cause offence in the strict Islamic nation, with low-cut tops and short skirts strictly banned.
Instead, the wives and girlfriends will enjoy evenings out in linen trouser suits and long dresses, with their arms covered to show respect to local tradition in Doha.
Personal stylist Connie Jones, 31, from Manchester, helped three WAGs design their wardrobes for the tournament – not only for matches, but for evening get togethers and restaurant visits.
Luke Shaw’s partner Anouska Santos, John Stones’s partner Liv Naylor and Marcus Rashford’s fiancée Lucia Loi all sought help ahead of arriving for England’s first World Cup match against Iran today, MailOnline has been told.
All three will bring suitcases of designer clothing, make-up and jewellery curated by Ms Jones, who runs the Connie Personal Shopping Company from her studio in Manchester.

Low-cut tops, skimpy tight shorts and revealing skirts have been vetoed.
However, wearing England shirts with the names of their partners – a custom at World Cup matches – has been OKed by those in Doha.
The WAGs have been told their should consider a scarf – with Gucci and Hermes favoured – to wear around their necks so as to not reveal their figures.
A source told MailOnline: ‘A lot of planning has gone in preparation for the women.
‘Connie leaves nothing to chance and has examined their itinerary and desired outfits which will fit into situations such as visit to restaurants or even when they are in the gym.
‘She is highly trusted and thought of by the women and has contacts to source the latest fashions and clothing so that the women look the best.

What a treat: In Qatar there are strict alcohol rules, but because the MSC World Europa is ‘off-shore’, those on board can sip on champagne without fear of legal repercussions
‘This World Cup is very different from the last one in Russia four years ago we are the players wives and girlfriends could show off their bodies and figures in items such as denim shorts and skimpy tops.
The women know that they are going to be photographed wherever they go and they understand that it helps them on their social media profiles so they have to look the best.
‘The last thing they want is to offend anybody in Qatar. They have a lot of self-respect and want to show the same respect to the people there but at the same time enjoy themselves.
‘What we are going to see at this World Cup is a new style of WAG. They are going to look amazing everywhere they go.’
Connie has more than 50,000 followers on Instagram and they include Jordan Pickford’s wife Megan, Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood, Kieran Trippier’s wife Charlotte, Kalvin Phillips’ girlfriend Ashleigh Behan and Declan Rice’’ partner Lauren Fryer.
England’s VERY glamorous support squad! Ahead of the team’s first World Cup match in Qatar, Femail reveals the WAGS cheering them on – from childhood sweethearts to a model and property developer
England is set for their first match of the World Cup on Monday afternoon against Iran.
And as they take to the pitch in Qatar for the first of their Group B games, Gareth Southgate’s team will be supported by a glamorous array of wives and girlfriends.
The squad, for instance, will be cheered on by Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood as well as Harry Maguire’s wife Fern Hawkins, and Harry Kane’s wife Katie Goodland.
Southgate has not declared whether he will allow the WAGs to meet his team at the Souq Al Wakra hotel in Doha where he will stay with his 26-man squad.
Here, FEMAIL takes a look at the very glamorous WAGS supporting the footballers…

Megan Davison met Everton ace Jordan Pickford when they were teenagers. The childhood sweethearts have been dating since she was 14 and he was 16 after meeting at school and share a son, Arlo.
The pair went out on their first date to the cinema while he was a pupil at St Robert of Newminster Catholic School in their native Washington, Tyne and Wear.
Megan, now 26, graduated from university in 2019. She had son, Arlo, in February that year, and the couple were married in March 2020 at a register office in Crewe, having had to postpone their lavish Maldives nuptials due to the pandemic.
The ceremony was distinctly understated, with Pickford wearing a baseball cap and ripped jeans, while the bride wore Givenchy studded boots and carried a Dior handbag.
An Instagram star with platinum hair and a love of shopping, Megan has assumed a ‘mother hen’ status with the other wives. Ahead of the opening game of the Euros against Croatia, she arranged a pre-match party for them (pictures from which she shared on Instagram.)
She sparked controversy in December last year after sharing a message in support of anti-vax protestors. Megan shared a photo from the so-called Freedom March that sparked chaotic scenes across central London on December 18.
The demonstration, declared a ‘major incident’ by London mayor Sadiq Khan, was attended by thousands of anti-vaxxers after further restrictions were put in place to slow the spread of new coronavirus variant Omicron.
Davison appeared to show a degree of empathy for the mob by sharing a photo of one protestor holding a placard emblazoned with the message: ‘Even if you’re not conspiracy minded, something in your soul has to say…something is wrong.’
The photo was posted without additional comment from the mother-of-one, and is no longer present on her Instagram account.

Kyle Walker met Annie Kilner when he was 18 while he was playing at his hometown club Sheffield United, when the model was 16. The smitten couple are parents to three children – Roman, Riaan and Reign.
Having supported Kyle through the 2018 World Cup, in March 2019, she dumped him after he allegedly sent messages to Ex On The Beach reality star Laura Brown.
As well as the three children he shares with Annie, Kyle shares son Kairo, 14 months, with ex Lauryn Goodman.
The footballer conceived his youngest child Kairo while involved in a short relationship with Lauryn, during a temporary split from Annie in February 2020.
In June 2020, the Mirror reported that Kyle had popped the question to Annie with an epic floral proposal at her home.
Last year, Annie claimed that days before Kyle allegedly met Lauryn, she suffered a miscarriage, and was devastated when she claimed he confessed that the reality star was pregnant.
She told The Sun On Sunday at the time: ‘I don’t know what my thoughts or feelings are any more. I feel dead inside. Each day is filled with pain.
‘I don’t think I’ll ever be the same again because of what he’s done. It makes me really sad that I’ve been damaged so badly when I’ve done nothing to deserve it.
‘I’ve tried to hate him but how can I hate the man my kids love so much? Before the infidelity he was my best friend, my soulmate. I could count on him for anything.’
Kyle also came under fire last year for allegedly hosting a sex party with two escorts while the country remained in Covid-19 lockdown.
It was claimed the footballer and a friend, paid £2,200 for Louise McNamara, 21, and a 24-year-old Brazilian call girl to visit his Cheshire home, before leaving the next day.
Walker, who has 48 England caps, apologised for the incident.
He said: ‘I want to take this opportunity to issue a public apology for the choices I made last week.
‘I understand that my position as a professional footballer brings the responsibility of being a role model.
‘As such, I want to apologise to my family, friends, football club, supporters and the public for letting them down.’
Earlier this year, Lauryn lashed out at Kyle after the England defender unveiled a pair of bespoke football boots bearing the names of each of his children – but not Kairo.
