Here at RadioTimes.com we'd been doing the maths on whether England would be knocked out if they lost the match, secretly hoping, of course, that it would turn out to be a pointless bit of activity.

But no such luck.

Twitter was filled with the minute-by-minute emotions of fans, which ranged from anxious excitement to outright pain...

The (fake Twitter) Queen had some thoughts for the team

Some managed to keep the positivity a bit longer

But it wasn't enough to completely raise spirits

Just to say- have arrived at Heathrow and have prime position to cheer England team home tomorrow #EnglandvsUruguay

Even the big guy couldn't be moved on the issue

Gosh, even the fruit was confused

It's OK though, there's still hope. In fact, maybe this guy can help?
