Frank Skinner and David Baddiel were seen cheering on England as they faced Denmark to fight for a place in the Euros 2020 final on Wednesday.

The comedian, 64, and his fellow comic, 57, are the masterminds behind the Three Lions football anthem, which they penned 25 years ago, and that fans have been chanting throughout the tournament.

Frank and David were sat in the stands with their sons, Frank's son Buzz, nine, and David's son Ezra, 17.

Frank was seen wearing a blue rain coat that he paired with a matching baseball cap, while David wore a black hoodie and a white hat. 

The pair were more than happy to take snaps with fans at the event, and were seen smiling for a selfie with one person. 

Three Lions was originally written as the England's anthem for UEFA Euro 1996, and Frank and David co-wrote and performed the song alongside The Lightning Seeds.

The comedy duo then went on to re-record the track with new lyrics for the 1998 World Cup.
