Have you stayed up late to watch a World Cup match?

It’s been a late start for many football fans watching from outside the US.

WE’RE NOW WELL into this year’s 104-game World Cup, with the tournament having reached the knockout stages.

For football fans across Europe, there’s been plenty of late nights recently, with many matches kicking off in the middle of the night due to time differences.

Even last night – or technically today, on this side of the pond – England’s match against Mexico was due to start at 1am Irish time (6pm local time in Mexico). However, kick-off was then delayed by an hour due to severe weather.

So with that in mind, we’re asking: Have you stayed up late to watch a World Cup match?
