Presenters celebrating on ITV as England beats Colombia

Ian Wright always wear his heart on his sleeve, and the pundit showed his passion for England moments after their impossibly tense penalty shootout win over Colombia with manic celebrations in the ITV studio.

Wright leapt off his seat and hugged fellow pundits Lee Dixon and Gary Neville as the trio of former England players, who have all suffered heartache playing for their country, celebrated England's first ever World Cup penalty shootout win.

England recovered after conceding a late equaliser in added time, battling through extra-time to take the game to penalties.

Jordan Henderson missed his spot-kick but Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Kieran Trippier and Eric Dier all scored to send England through to the quarter-finals, where they will meet Sweden.
