Louis Tomlinson Greeted as Hero After Setting Up TV at Glastonbury Festival to Screen England’s Euro 2024 Soccer Match


Louis Tomlinson thrilled soccer fans at Glastonbury on Sunday morning when he set up a TV in a field at the fest to screen England's 2024 Euro match.

The legendary summer festival that took place over the weekend drew 200,000 to see sets by headliners Dua Lipa, LCD Soundsystem, Coldplay, SZA and Burna Boy, even as England was fighting for its life in a thrilling elimination game against Slovakia in the Euro 2024 soccer tournament. According to the Guardian, former One Direction star and solo singer Louis Tomlinson livestreamed the game in a festival campsite on a flat screen TV taped to a trolley fueled by a generator on Sunday morning, drawing hundreds to the site to watch the match. The Guardian said that Tomlinson bought the gear earlier in the day and was originally planning to watch the game in the VIP backstage area before spotty reception forced him to find another location near the Pyramid stage.
