Qatar resident had no idea they were guiding the England team around the country

The video has gone viral on TikTok.

A Qatar resident has gone viral after not realising members of England's World Cup squad had asked for directions.

Gareth Southgate's side are currently top of Group B ahead of their final game against Wales on Tuesday evening.

The Three Lions know they only need to avoid a four-goal defeat against their bitter rivals to guarantee passage to the round of 16.

It means they've been able to spend a little bit of their free time exploring Qatar. TikTok user @al5ansa was asked if they knew any spots for the players to hit on Saturday afternoon, so they decided to give them a hand. They had no idea what they'd let himself in for. Check out the video below.

The video's caption reads: "I was like 'are you looking for a good cafe? I’ll show you'. Fast forward I’m touring them around the Souq [Waqif, a local marketplace] and only asked if they are England’s team after seeing someone taking a selfie."

Manchester City duo John Stones and Kalvin Phillips, Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson and Borussia Dortmund starlet Jude Bellingham are all included in the footage.

Decked out in England shorts [which should've given it away], the quartet get about Doha while chatting to a few of the locals.

Phillips and Bellingham are stopped for selfies, while Stones and Henderson were snapped together a little further up the path.

The clip has been viewed over 150,000 on TikTok at the time of writing. Fans back home have had their say, joking the England players look like lads on a stag do.

One person said: "They're acting like they're on a dad's holiday."

Another put: "I'd cry if I saw them getting about like this."

A third tweeted: "Bro was casually walking around with the England team I don't believe it."

While another added: "They all seem like top blokes."

England ran out 6-2 winners over Iran last Monday before slumping to a 0-0 draw against the USMNT on Friday.

That draw saw Southgate receive criticism for his substitutions. Phil Foden was left on the bench as England chased the game, despite scoring eight goals in all competitions for Manchester City this season.

Southgate is expected to shuffle his team around for the Wales game. Bellingham has started both games so far, even opening the scoring against Iran, but he's set to make way for the experienced Henderson.
