On June 29, 2021, Chelsea's captain Hary Kane posted on his Twitter about one of their fans, Charlie Naughton, passing away while celebrating their second goal against Germany with his family.
In the post, he expressed deep regret at the twenty-nine-year-old fan: "He was watching the football in his local pub surrounded by family and friends when he suddenly collapsed. The emergency services worked tirelessly for three hours to save him but our boy Charlie sadly passed away. This poignant moment in British history that will be remembered by all but for all of Charlie’s family and friends. This will be the most devastating time of their lives."
Before that heartbreaking moment, Mr. Charlie was able to say "I love you" to his mother. His mom, Karen Naughton, told The Sun: "I called him before the game and he said to believe, that he loved me, I told him I loved him." “He called me mucker, and when France were knocked out he was so excited, he said to me that all we had to do was beat the Germans and we could win. That it was coming home. He really lived and breathed football, he’s the biggest supporter you’d ever meet. He is a big brother to his two sisters, we’re all so close and we love him so much. He was a fit lad, it is a shock and it is tragic.”
While struggling in the border of surviving or not, Charlie still thought about his mother. It shows how much he loves and appreciates his family. h/t: The Sun
