England and Norway Fans Flock to Miami

England and Norway fans have flocked to Miami in their tens of thousands to enjoy the football and sunshine.

Background

The area of Miami Beach, known for its art deco hotels, is hosting a unique gathering of fans. A Huddersfield Town flag is being hung from one of the hotels, while Norwegians in national team shirts cycle past, adding to the festive atmosphere.

Key Details

The presence of fans is inescapable yet remote to locals, who continue their daily activities, such as playing volleyball beneath the sand dunes. Around 30,000 England fans are due to converge by Saturday, but they will be given a run for their money by those supporting Norway.

What It Means

A quarter-final rewards those who have been on the road for a month and is irresistible to the spontaneous too. The party in Miami is expected to be like no other, with fans from both countries coming together to enjoy the World Cup.
