England fans face one of the most gruelling travel schedules if they are to follow their team all the way to the World Cup final.
If the Three Lions win Group L and go on to the final, supporters will have to travel 6,468.5 miles.
That is starting off in Dallas and finishing up in East Rutherford, with a total travel time of just under 19 hours.
The flight from Dallas to Foxborough for the second group game, and the trip to Mexico City and back between the last 16 and the quarter-final, accounts for most of it.
England would have less travel as group runners-up, with their journeys amounting to 5,970.4 miles and a total travel time of 18 and a half hours.
Portugal and Spain have it worse, even though they stay in Houston and Atlanta respectively for their first two group games.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal travel 6,781.9 miles with more than 22 hours in the air, while Spain must make trips totalling 6,667.2 miles, which will take 18 hours and 15 minutes.
France fans are the big winners, with just 2,675 miles on the clock, taking 12 and a half hours. They even have the luxury of two short train trips between East Rutherford and Philadelphia. The 1,561-mile journey from Foxborough and Dallas for the semi-final accounts for well over half of the travelling.
Mexico fare second best, largely because by winning their group they would have three consecutive games at the Azteca – from their final group game through to a last-16 tie. Their total travel works out of 3,199.7 miles. At just over 10 hours, El Tri supporters have the lowest travel time.
Third best are Germany on 4,141.5 miles, which would take 15 and a half hours.
And what about Scotland? If they shocked Brazil and Morocco, won their group and went on to reach the final, they would travel 6,083.3 miles taking 18 hours.
If Scotland qualify as group runners-up, there is a little more travel, with 6,248 miles which is just over 18 hours.
