Jude Bellingham scored in the first period of extra time to give England a 2-1 lead in their FIFA World Cup quarter-final against Norway at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium. The FIFA World Cup quarter-final between Norway and England went into extra time after the two teams were tied 1-1 at the end of 90 minutes. Andreas Schjelderup scored for Norway while Jude Bellingham equalized for England. Chasing a one-goal deficit in the second period of extra time, Norway substituted Erling Haaland.
Both teams had goals disallowed. Norway saw Torbjörn Hagem’s goal disallowed after a VAR review in the 56th minute as Erling Haaland’s foul on Elliott Andersen was awarded on a corner kick. England could have gone 2-1 up at half-time, but Harry Kane’s goal was ruled offside before the whistle.

Who scored in England against Norway
Against the run of play, Andreas Schjelderup gave Norway a 1-0 lead over England with an incredible strike in the 36th minute. Schjelderup broke into the England box from the left and then hit a dipping shot that went into the side netting. Before Norway’s goal, England dominated and had the better chances in the first half hour. But it was Norway who broke the deadlock with their first real chance. There would be some complaints about the England goal, with Harry Kane feeling he was fouled for the goal, which the referee waved away.
Then, Jude Bellingham scored in the second minute of extra time as England drew 1–1 against Norway. Gordon played the ball down the left wing to Bellingham before scoring while surrounded by four Norwegian defenders.
Schjelderup and Bellingham’s goals came in a game billed as a clash between two of the world’s best strikers – Norway’s Erling Haaland and England’s Harry Kane.
Coming into the game, Haaland had scored seven goals at this year’s World Cup, just one ahead of France’s Kylian Mbappe and Argentina’s Lionel Messi in the race for the Golden Boot. One goal behind Haaland is Harry Kane (six goals and one assist before the match against Norway).
“I think it’s Norway versus England,” Norway coach Stel Solbacken said on Friday, trying to play down the hype for the Haaland versus Kane clash. But eventually he admitted: “But it’s no secret to me that Kane is match-leader No.1 for England and Haaland is match-leader No.1 for us.”

Haaland – who did not play for Norway when they lost to France in the group stage – has scored in the tournament. His two goals against Iraq came within 14 minutes of each other. His two goals against Senegal were 10 minutes apart. His two goals against Brazil were 11 minutes apart.
Not just Haaland, Norway has nine players who play their club football in England. Haaland was two years after Norway last played in the FIFA World Cup. Will he lead Norway to the semi-finals in their first World Cup in 28 years?
A play made for Norway vs England

It’s a battle that has drawn superstars like David Beckham, Brazil’s Ronaldo, Kaka, Alessandro Del Piero, Cafu and Cesc Fabregas to Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium.
