Footballer Raheem Sterling was sent home with his head in his hands after England's embarrassing loss to Iceland in the second round of Euro 2016.
But it appears £49million Manchester City midfielder did not stay dejected and downbeat for very long.
The 21-year-old looked in good spirits as he showed off a mansion, that he bought for his mother, and fleet of supercars in a video shared on Snapchat just hours after England landed back in the UK on their private jet on Monday.

The clip was posted on the social media app by a friend of Sterling and obtained by the Sun.
Still wearing his England team blue and white polo shirt, the former Liverpool player is seen smiling as he takes a group of friends on a private tour of the luxury pad near London.
Sterling - who dubbed himself 'The Hated One' after a poor Euro performance - later shows off an extravagant bathroom, complete with matching silver toilet and bidet.
The centre piece of the room is a vulgar glittering jewel-encrusted sink.

The friends then move into a darkened room, with tiny lights twinkling on the ceiling. Someone behind the camera says: 'And now we’ve got the cinema room.'
The tour ends with another spin around the driveway.
Captioned 'My team winning', the cameraman shows a close up of the back of the red Ferrari and another view of the Range Rover, saying: 'Ferrari. Got the big daddy Rangey.'
But Sterling is said to be 'furious and frustrated' with the footage and unhappy his family are being dragged into the media.
A close friend told the Manchester Evening News the winger had chosen to visit his mother after returning to the country because he 'had not seen her for weeks'.
The source said: 'Raheem and his family are really upset that the fact he's bought a nice house for his mum is being used to hammer him by the media and make him the scapegoat for England's failure.
'He bought her the house as a thank you for all her support and help. Now to have his mum's private life and house being mocked and thrown into the public spotlight has left him furious and frustrated.'

The video clip comes after England fans were left in shock over how their team of multi-millionaire world-class players could be defeated 2-1 by the underdogs of the tournament.
Indeed, the entire Iceland squad of 23 cost less than the single fee of £49million paid by Manchester City for Sterling, who was heavily criticised for his performance in the tournament.
He is thought to earn as much as £180,000-a-week with Manchester City.
