Australian football supporters have become an unexpected talking point at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, not because of what happened on the pitch, but because of a humorous chant that has taken social media by storm. Videos shared online captured hundreds of Socceroos supporters marching through a Walmart in Arlington, Texas, singing football chants ahead of Australia's Round of 32 clash with Egypt.
Moments later, as police escorted the lively crowd from the store, supporters could be heard chanting, 'We're getting deported,' turning an otherwise routine intervention into one of the tournament's most widely shared fan moments. Clips from the incident have since attracted millions of views across social media, with many praising the supporters' humour and describing them as some of the most entertaining fans at the World Cup.
