Editor's note: This is the latest in a series of posts highlighting the most viral moments of the 2018 World Cup.

English fans are a little excited that their national team beat Panama 6-1 in the World Cup on Sunday, moving on to the round of 16. A little excited? OK, these long-deprived fans are crazy-excited.

Many fans, including Oasis singer Liam Gallagher, are citing the 1996 song, It's Coming Home, which declares fans' faith in the team to win it all.

Many fans just tweeted, "It's coming home," but others had fun with it. "It's definitely on its way home, it may get lost on the way but it's heading in the right direction," wrote one Twitter user. Wrote YouTuber Chris Dixon: "Getting 'it's coming home' tattooed on my forehead as we speak."

English team captain Harry Kane scored the third-ever hat trick by an England player in the World Cup, and fans were thrilled. "I reckon (Princes) William and Harry will fight over who will knight Harry Kane. It will be on pay per view," wrote one Twitter user. Another stole a line from Hagrid of Harry Potter, declaring, "You're a wizard, Harry."

Although in true English form, not everyone was clearing a space on their trophy shelf, pointing out the team hasn't exactly played top-notch teams. "Calm down mate. It's Panama. Scunthorpe Utd would beat them.," wrote one Twitter user. Said another: "What a joke, we're playing crap teams for goodness sake. Be great if England win but we won't."

A good win although look who we've played. Don't think it warrants were going to win the cup as some suggest. Going the right way but Belgium is more realistic test of how far they may go. Looking for progress from england hopefully we will feel that's happening.

Japan and Senegal also played Sunday, and while they ended in a 2-2 tie, the game was lauded for its high quality. "Japan vs. Senegal is probably the match of the tournament. So fun," wrote one viewer.

Those who thought the Portugal-Spain game was the best, I hope, are watching the Japan-Senegal match. Can any two teams really go at this speed for 90 minutes?!?!#JPNSEN

For all of you who decided to take a quick Sunday evening break from the World Cup because “its only Japan vs Senegal”, youve missed a great game. #JPNSEN
