Italy striker Mario Balotelli has demanded a kiss from the Queen if his team beats Costa Rica in the World Cup on Friday.
England are relying on the Azzurri to keep them in the tournament by defeating the Central American side and Uruguay in their next two matches.
Only two Italy wins will give the Three Lions any hope of remaining in the competition, and Balotelli has taken to Twitter to request personal thanks from the monarch if they pull off the feat.
England crashed to a 2-1 defeat to Uruguay on Thursday evening.
