Prince William was photographed seemingly explaining the rules of the game to his young son as he pointed toward the action on the field. Prince George was already looking like a passionate fan, eagerly watching the footballers and cheering at appropriate times.

The 6-year-old is showing signs to be just as charismatic as his famous parents, and his little sister Princess Charlotte proved to be a happy spectator, too. The 4-year-old consulted her mother, the former Kate Middleton, throughout the match.

Many fans loved the fact that the royals sat with everyone else and enjoyed the outing just like any other family.

"This is how a modern RF behaves," commented one Twitter user. "Having normal everyday fun whilst maintaining dignity."

"How many Mum’s & Dad’s have taken their kids to a their first Villa match & it turns out to be a boring 0-0 snoozathon or we get thumped?!?" posted another follower. "Little Prince George rocks up with his parents for the first time & is treated to this goal feast"

Here's to many more fun outings (and wins!) for this lovely family.
