The singer and co-founder of the legendary rock band The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, created the reputation of being an ominous bird in football games and this Wednesday he went to see the team of England, lost.

The head of Rolling Stones attended the Luznniki stadium, where Croatia won 2-1 in overtime and sealed its ticket to the World Cup final.

Just last year, Jagger unexpectedly released some solo songs. One bears the title "Lost England" ( Lost England) .

At the beginning of the melody, the lyrics tell the story of someone who comes to watch a football game of the English team. The story ends with a political commentary on Britain's exit from the European Union.

"I want to see England, but England has lost," sings Jagger. "And they all said that they deceived us."

Jagger arrived in Russia after a short European tour with his band, which included a Sunday concert in Warsaw. He attended the match Tuesday between France and Belgium in St. Petersburg and then traveled to Moscow to see how he played – and lost – his country's team against the Croatians .

In recent years, it has been common to see Jagger in major football tournaments. He attended the World Cup final four years ago in Brazil and watched the match between the United States and Ghana, corresponding to the second round of South Africa 2010.

But some people think Jagger brings bad luck to the world . In 2014, during another European tour, he transmitted on Twitter words of encouragement before the match between England and Uruguay, in group stage.

"Let's go to England, it's the game we have to win!" He wrote. The English fell.

At a show in Rome, Jagger then predicted that Italy would beat Uruguay at a later date in this World Cup. Uruguayans have prevailed.

Earlier, at a concert in Lisbon, Jagger said that Portugal could win the title in Brazil. Cristiano Ronaldo and company were eliminated in the first round.

The semi-finals came, where Jagger's bad reputation got worse, who attended Belo Horizonte to see the duel between the local team and Germany. The rocker was accompanied by his son Lucas, who has Brazilian blood.

But Brazil lost, not less than 7-1.

Rumors that Jagger was ominous began at the 2010 World Cup. A day after the United States and Ghana, Jagger attended the match between England and Germany .

And England lost.

Then he was in the stands to see the Brazilians against the Dutch in the quarterfinals, with his son, who proudly wore the verdeamarela jacket. And Brazil fell.

Perhaps these stories led Jagger to write his song, released in July, one day after his 74th birthday. At the launch of the song, Jagger said in a statement that the lyrics were talking about something more than a defeated team.

"It's also a perception of the vulnerable situation in which we are as a country," he said.

Regardless of the reason that inspired the song. The fact is that Wednesday England lost.
