And she thinks Wembley — where the semis and final will be played — could then inspire the team in the way it did for Bobby in 1966.

Speaking to The Sun, she said: “Bobby would be so proud if England won and went on to lift the trophy.

“I think we have a very good chance. The team will be confident so I am going for 2-1 to England.

“They have a really good chance of winning the tournament.

“Can you imagine how it would boost the morale of the entire country?

“It would be like 1966 all over again.

“After the coronavirus misery of the last 18 months it would just be amazing.”

Stephanie, 70, who set up the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK following his death from bowel cancer in 1993, will be among millions watching tonight’s match in Rome.
