England defeat Norway 2-1 to reach World Cup semi-finals
Bellingham’s brace overturned Norway’s lead as England reached the World Cup semifinals for the first time since 2018, FIFA said.
- On Saturday, July 11, 2026, England defeated Norway 2-1 after extra time at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, with Jude Bellingham scoring both goals to secure the Three Lions' place in the World Cup semifinals.
- Andreas Schjelderup broke the deadlock for Norway in the 36th minute with a stunning strike, but Bellingham equalized just before halftime to level the match at 1-1 heading into extra time.
- Before England's equalizer, a Norway goal kick appeared to strike an overhead camera cable; FIFA later stated sensor data showed "no evidence that the ball touched the overhead wire."
- In the 57th minute, defender Torbjørn Heggem's goal was disallowed after VAR review penalized striker Erling Haaland for pushing midfielder Elliot Anderson during the corner buildup.
- England will face Argentina or Switzerland on Wednesday, July 15 in Atlanta for a spot in the World Cup final, keeping alive their pursuit of a first title in 60 years.
