England captain Harry Kane and his teamates' WAGs show their support

The wives and girlfriends of England players have shown their support after being forced to watch the Euros clash against Ukraine at home due to Italy's quarantine rules.

This year's WAG cohort have been unable to travel to Rome's Stadio Olimpico to watch the Three Lions' quarter final match because all UK arrivals must self-isolate for five days after arriving in Italy - which is on England's amber list.

Instead, the glamorous partners of England's players are watching their side's bid to make their first Euro semi final for 25 years from home turf.

And it appears their long-distance support is working, as England roar ahead of their opponent in the much-anticipated game.

Harry Kane's wife Katie Goodland shared a picture posing with their daughters Ivy and Vivienne and son Louis in a teepee.

The extravagant structure featured a cardboard cutout of Kane, next to a neon sign reading: 'Come on England'.

England flags were draped along a bar. In one image, Katie is seen holding Louis, who was born in December last year.

Also cheering on their partner is Jordan Pickford's girlfriend Megan Davison.

She shared a selfie of herself in a mirror with the caption: 'Supporting from home, adding: 'Come on England.'

Harry Maguire's sister Daisy also shared her support. She posed inside a structure - which appeared to be a beer tent - in front of an England flag.

In her caption, shared with a fingers crossed emoji, she wrote: 'Let's go.'

She later posted a picture the match on a large projector, and said it was 'so weird' not watching in person.

Today, expat supporters from Dubai, Switzerland, Spain, Prague and France arrived in Rome ahead of tonight's 8pm kickoff.

More than 300 flew from the UAE - paying £700 for a return ticket - with a further 200 expected to arrive before the evening kick off.

And even German fans in Rome said they will be cheering on England after they were swayed by the passionate support they saw at Wembley when their team was defeated.

Meanwhile, fans back home are preparing to pack out pubs and beer gardens for tonight's quarter final clash.

The national side will take on Andriy Shevchenko's men at the Stadio Olympico in Rome, but Italy remains on the UK's amber list and supporters have been urged not to travel.

Regulations in Italy also mean they needed to have spent five days in quarantine and have had a negative post-isolation Covid test to be allowed into the stadium.

That means those backing Gareth Southgate's men in their first away game of the tournament will either be those who call Italy their new home, or who have travelled from another European country to attend the game.

Italian police are set to bring in check points at the Olympic Stadium to intercept and arrest any England fans who slip into the country from the UK.

Expat fans were warned to carry proof of their address or face being arrested and fined £386 if they are found to have breached the quarantine rules.

Meanwhile there are fears celebrating supporters back home will drink pubs and stores dry this weekend because of possible beer shortages.

Deliveries of beer, fresh food and barbecue essentials to pubs, convenience stores and supermarkets are being hit by a national lack of drivers.

Elsewhere models from Ukraine's notorious 'Butt Squad' - jailed for a racy photoshoot in Dubai - posed in Kiev to support their country.

Their balcony image on a skyscraper caused outrage when it went viral in April, but now four of the women used blue and yellow Ukrainian flags as props to back their team.
