The former One Directioner reportedly left the festival site earlier in the day to purchase a full-sized television, a generator, and an internet dongle from Argos. He told the Guardian that he originally intended to set up the viewing area backstage, but a dodgy Wi-Fi signal meant he ventured into the campsites. Tomlinson watched the game alongside hordes of festival-goers who joined in with the screening. Though a low-key Tomlinson sat at the front in a vintage England windbreaker watching the game, many at the back did not initially spot him through the growing crowd, or realise at first that the boy band singer was behind the stunt.
