Google catches England fever with new World Cup Easter Eggs

If you own a Google Home or Google Home Mini, you can amuse yourself by asking it a series of questions about the beautiful game. Just don’t expect especially insightful (or non-sarcastic) responses.
Below is a list of Easter Eggs that are currently live on the Home and Home Mini:
- Is football coming home?
- Do you like football?
- Who’s your favourite football player?
- Give me a football ritual
- Give me a football chant
- What country will you be rooting for in the game?
- I don’t care about the World Cup
- My team just lost the game
- Who do you think has the best style in the World Cup?
- What are you doing for the World Cup?
- My team is now playing in the World Cup
- Do you know any soccer expressions?
- Do you have any good football tactics?
- What do you think will happen this World Cup?

If you’re really bored, you can go through all of the queries above multiple times − Google says there are “a few responses” for most of the Easter Eggs.
