England's opening World Cup draw with Sweden saw the fans running through the full range of emotions - from elation with Campbell's opener, to the deflation of the second half.
Here at TheFA.com, we've been collecting the full range of reaction: from fans in Japan; emails coming into the website; from text messages, and through our F.A. World Cup Fans Panel.
Here is a selection of the opinion on England's opening match:
"As long as you play with a smile on your face and you are allowed to play your natural game without worrying about the Argentines, you will win - I feel it in my bones."
"Danny Mills should by no means feel he let his country down. He had a good game and one little slip which he corrected should not be a guise for self loathing. He is a good player and I hope he and all of you realise that the media may blow up that the fans are not pleased but I think that you all played your hearts out and am very proud of you all."
"Good start for the boys and we deserved the lead through the headed goal by Sol Campbell. Second half we didn't control the play as much though and we now have it all to do against Argentina who won their opener."
"A message of support from a Scot , I don't know if anyone cares or not , but not all Scots are anti English , I am cheering on England during this World Cup .Come on England!"
"Thanks for yoour exciting game which makes me so happy.. and give me a power to go working from tomorrow! (Japanese fan)"
"Take pleasure in running onto the pitch and hunger for action, you are the elite who will never say die. If you see a shot on goal, bury it through the back of the net and revel in blocking and beating your opponents every move. Victory will be yours.
"England performance disappointing, tournament great! England going to have hard time now. England result disappointing. Going to be tough now looking forward to Friday 7th! Brazil, italy, germany all looking strong as usual unfortunately!"
"Sorry but my football head has gone blank since Englands 2nd half collapse but no team has impressed/scared me. If England progress, anything's possible"
"England defended too deep. But England will beat the argies 2-1."
"It really makes me jealous to see all these lucky people watching the game live from the stadium while I'm here watching the game in england on TV. But it's not bad because the atmosphere here in england is great"
