Soccer fan captures hilarious selfie with Prince George

A lucky soccer fan has captured a selfie with Prince George after seeing the Cambridge family out at a soccer game.

Twitter user @CoProNorfolk was at the Saturday match between Aston Villa and Norwich when he noticed the royal family enjoying the game.  

Taking a sneaky over-the-shoulder selfie, the fan managed to capture a deadpan stare from Prince George.

"Not The Best game of Football I've Seen ... Who's That behind me though??" the tweet read.

Prince George and his father William were thrilled at the outcome of the game, which saw Aston Villa winning the match 5 to 1.

Princess Charlotte also attended the game, but was less interested in the outcome. 

In another sweet snap posted by the Kensington Royal Instagram page, Prince George is jumping for joy with his father and mother. There are rumours that the excited royal was shushed by Prince William as they were sitting among the losing home fans and he was being mindful of his son rubbing the win in their faces.

It appears that members of the British royal family aren’t too keen on posing for selfies with well-wishers.

In 2018, Duchess Meghan informed fans that she wasn’t “allowed” to take one and back in 2015, Prince Harry said that he “hates” the selfie trend.

"I know you're young, but selfies are bad. Just take a normal photograph!" he told a fan in Canberra back in 2015.

However, this doesn’t appear to stop fans from getting photos with the Duchess of Cambridge and the Queen herself.

Aussie hockey players Jayde Taylor and Brooke Peris were stoked to notice Her Royal Highness had “photobombed” a selfie they took together during an event in Glasgow back in 2014.
