I spose it's up for interpretation and to me, it's celebrating the fact We invented the game and if We win it (WC or Euros), the trophy / football will be going home. But of course, we can't credit the British / English for anything, let alone inventing the game itself.
Was with you until the last sentence - even @JessieAddick gives the English credit for inventing the game earlier in the thread!
