Retail sales in the UK rose between May and June, boosted by demand for food and drink as millions watched the Euro 2020 football tournament.
Sales rose 0.5% month-on-month following a drop in May, official figures showed.
Growth came from "food and drink sales, boosted by football fans across Britain enjoying the Euros", the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.
June retail sales were 9.5% higher than before the pandemic in February 2020.
