Young Wales fan fuming with England fans celebrating and people are in stitches

There wasn't too much to smile about for Wales fans as they watched their side fall to their third defeat of the Six Nations after being overpowered by a strong England team at the Principality Stadium.

Steve Borthwick's side emerged from the scrappy contest as 10-20 victors and should have won by a lot more, as Warren Gatland's men fought hard but were unable to get their campaign back on track after a chaotic week in Welsh rugby. Despite Louis Rees-Zammit cancelling out Anthony Watson's first-half try, tries from Ellis Genge and Ollie Lawrence sealed a deserved victory.

But despite the result, which sees Wales staring the possibility of a first Six Nations whitewash since 2003 square in the face ahead of their trip to Italy in two weeks' time, one young home supporter managed to cheer up fans watching the game live on BBC.

After Watson finished off a well-worked move to grab England's first try of the game, BBC cameras panned round to the stands where jubilant English fans were celebrating. But one shot caught the frank, honest reaction of a young Wales fan.

Staring directly into the camera lens with a look of pure fury, the fuming fan shook his head as one English supporter in front of him cheered wildly, pumping his fists and holding his pint aloft.

The seething fan's hilarious reaction was picked up by eagle-eyed viewers who were left in stitches by what they saw.

Sharing a clip of the moment on Twitter, one viewer wrote: "The little Welsh kid in the crowd isn't impressed," while another added: "Whatever the result, the disappointment on this Welsh kids face watching England fans celebrate is priceless."
