The people of Sussex and Surrey celebrated with the rest of the nation on Saturday following the England football team’s 2-0 win in the World Cup quarter finals against Sweden.  

The celebrations at Box Park in Croydon were praised by Gary Lineker on TV during half time when he commented “Croydon’s the winner so far” when comparing clips of other celebrations around the UK.
