England fans are taking this World Cup quarter-final against France very, very seriously.

So much so that one loyal die-hard has called upon his fellow Three Lions supporters to boycott only the finest French cuisines.

That's right, one lad has declared 'war' on France ahead of the match, instructing his troops to not eat and form of food coming from across the English Channel.

In the wake of England's 3-0 over Senegal in the Round of 16, Three Lions fan Liam took to social media to brace his fellow supporters for the upcoming clash with France.

"Right lads, it's War," he tweeted.

"No Baguettes from now on, No Croissiants, and don't you even f**king dare look at Macarons.

"Come on England."

Fellow Twitter users were absolutely loving his inspirational speech too, flocking to the comments section to double check whether they were playing by the rules.

One replied: "I drive a Renault and need to get to work…"

While another added :"F**k sake. Pain au chocolates are the only thing I eat at school cause all the rest is s***e."

As a third said: "I had pasta for dinner the day of the euros final last year. Still blame myself for that loss."

And when one bloke suggested a 'Carling only diet' till kick-off, one person was quick to remind him: "Carling was created in Canada, which has a few French links…"

As for the match itself, England vs France has got all the ingredients for one of the games of the tournament.

"In terms of France, it's the biggest test we could face," Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate said.

"They're world champions with an incredible depth of talent and outstanding individual players. They're very difficult to play against and score goals against, so it's a fantastic challenge and a brilliant game to prepare for."

He added: "The two quarter-finals that are already in place are historic rivalries.

"It's a great game to be involved with and to test ourselves against the very best."
