Coldplay delayed the start of their concert in Barcelona on Saturday (September 6th) to watch England play football against Andorra.
The band were able to watch the game because the Palau Sant Jordi arena, the site of their concert, is next door to the Olympic Stadium.
“The band were chuffed when they realised they were playing next to the England match and had to get tickets," a source told the Sun newspaper.
"They even postponed their show by an hour so they could watch the game.”
Although England won the game 2-0, the source said that Coldplay's performance “kicked England's into touch.”
