Scots drain England fans' beer supply in Boston

A legion of thousands of England supporters descended on Boston ahead of the Three Lions' second group match against Ghana, only to discover that the city's beer taps were empty after Scottish fans, who remained in town until Sunday, had consumed the entire supply. The English fans, expecting a lively pub atmosphere, found the local bars bereft of draft beer. Their disappointment was immediate as they searched for alternatives. Scottish supporters had been staying in Boston alongside the English contingent. Their stay extended through Sunday, covering the period of the England‑Ghana fixture.

During their stay, the Scots drank the full stock of beer that had been earmarked for the visiting supporters. The depletion left no bottled or kegged options for the English fans. The match in question marks England's second group‑stage encounter of the tournament, pitting the Three Lions against Ghana. The game is scheduled for the following day after the fans' arrival. The incident underscores the friendly rivalry between the two nations' supporters, with the Scots' consumption inadvertently causing a shortage for their English neighbours.
