Fears that England's crucial World Cup quarter-final showdown against Norway in Miami will be hit by delays or even postponement due to soaring temperatures across South Florida have been allayed.

A major heat risk had been declared in South Florida with temperatures said to be rising to 29-32°C - with a realfeel of up to 44°C - by the time today's game is due to kick off at 5pm in Miami (10pm UK time).

The City of Miami's official X account warned people in the local area to 'stay hydrated, wear lightweight clothing and limit outdoor activity'.

Their post read: 'Major Heat Risk is in effect across much of South Florida today.

'High temperatures and humidity can increase the risk of heat-related illness. Stay hydrated, wear lightweight clothing, limit outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day, and spend time in air-conditioned spaces whenever possible. Stay informed.'
