England face Norway this evening in a bid to reach the World Cup semi-finals for the first time since their 1966 triumph. The Three Lions kicked their campaign into life in the last-16, overcoming Mexico with a dramatic 3-2 win at the Estadio Azteca.
Jude Bellingham’s quickfire first-half brace preceded a Harry Kane penalty which ultimately proved the winner, despite Raul Jimenez reducing Mexico’s deficit to one with a second-half spot kick, setting up a nervous final 20 minutes. England overcame an extended onslaught, thanks in part to heroic defensive substitutes Dan Burn and Djed Spence.
Norway's Impressive Run
Norway are at the World Cup finals for the first time since 1998 and have put in a hugely impressive performance, cruising through qualifying before beating the Ivory Coast in the last-32 and stunning Brazil with a 2-1 win in the last-16. Erling Haaland has unsurprisingly been their talisman at the tournament, bagging seven goals in four appearances.
