World Cup: How does it affect office/ school productivity?

World cup which is held once every four year is most exciting event on earth. Most football fans are willing to give up some of their sleep just to catch every matches, which is broadcast between 10pm to 4am. But does it affect productivity when they are just catching just a few hours of sleep?
They are willing to give up a day work or school by getting an MC because they could not wake up due to the late soccer match last night. This will surely affect productivity. If workers do not report to work because of the late match, the company will be short handed and it will slow down productivity. If students do not report to school, the only missing out is them.
In my opinion, if they choose to watch the late matches, they must have the responsibility to wake up the next day to report on time for their duty. Watching late night football matches should not be an excuse to not report for duty.
But the problem is even if they were to report for duty the next day, will they be feeling sleepy or fresh? Even if they came to work but feeling sleepy, it will also affect the productivity. Overall, everyone has the right to enjoy late football match. But they must also have the responsibility to report for duty the next day feeling fresh too. It is wrong to prioritize world cup before their career or studies.
