England fans can stay in the pub - either celebrating or commiserating with each other - until 30 minutes after the final whistle is blown in the World Cup quarter-final against Norway, the government has said.
Extended licensing hours will allow supporters in England and Wales to watch the entire game, even if the start is delayed because of extreme heat. An earlier extension had allowed venues to stay open until 02:00 BST.
The Three Lions are due to kick off at 22:00 (18:00 local time) at the Hard Rock Stadium, in Miami, Florida.
It comes after England's match against Mexico on 2 July, held at the host country's Azteca Stadium, began an hour later than scheduled because of storms.
"England fans deserve the chance to watch every minute of the quarter-final together, and that is exactly what our extension guarantees," said Policing Minister Sarah Jones.
