The rest of the country may be getting full World Cup fever but the University of Warwick has called time on the beautiful game.

It had been showing the games on a big screen in the Piazza, with a huge amount of fans turning up to watch the action.

But now it has said it will no longer be screening any World Cup matches - including England's huge semi-final game against Croatia on Wednesday (July 11) - for safety reasons.

The university posted the message on its Facebook and Twitter pages today (July 9) warning people it would no longer be showing any of the matches because it doesn't feel it can "continue to safeguard students, staff and visitors".
