World Cup 2026: Where to watch England v Mexico in Eastbourne
Here’s where you can watch England take on Mexico at the World Cup in Eastbourne tomorrow morning (Monday, July 6).
The Three Lions will face co-hosts Mexico in the round-of-16 at 1am on Monday.
While football fans were worried the early morning kick-off meant watching the match at home, the UK Government has relaxed its licensing rules for pubs across the nation.
Licensed premises across England and Wales can now remain open until the end of the match. The move reverses an earlier position that had ruled out further relaxation of licensing rules beyond existing World Cup arrangements.


Outgoing Prime Minister Keir Starmer said: "Football might be coming home but we're making sure fans don't have to.”
In a video posted on social media, he added: “We’re making sure that pubs can stay open, early on Monday morning, for the England game.
"Lots of people are making their plans. If you are planning to watch it in the pub, that’s great, and it’s really good for pubs as well.
“So come on England!”
