As England prepares to face Norway in the World Cup quarter-final on Saturday night, a Newcastle bar is offering free drinks to anyone named Jude, in honor of England star Jude Bellingham.
Free Drink Offer at Alfie's Bar
Alfie's, a popular student bar on the outskirts of Newcastle city centre, has confirmed it will give a free drink to any customer named Jude who visits on Saturday. The offer applies throughout the day, and patrons simply need to show valid photo ID with the name Jude at the bar to claim their complimentary drink.
The bar, known for its brunches and themed events like paint & sip nights and Pitbull parties, expects to be fully booked for the match.
England's Road to the Quarter-Final
England advanced to the last eight after a dramatic 3-2 victory over Mexico in the round of 16. Jude Bellingham scored twice in less than two minutes to put England 2-0 up, with Harry Kane adding a penalty to make it 3-1 after Mexico pulled one back. Despite being reduced to 10 men, England held on after a late Mexican penalty from Raul Jimenez set up a nervy finish.
Norway, meanwhile, caused a major upset by defeating Brazil on Sunday to secure their place in the quarter-final.
World Cup Fan Zones in Newcastle
Newcastle has several indoor and outdoor World Cup fan zones open for the England vs Norway match, including Alfie's own 'mini' fan zone. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to secure a spot.
