England's Jude Bellingham scored a stunning equalizing goal to make it 1-1 against Norway in the World Cup 2026 quarter-final. The Real Madrid midfielder collected a pass from Anthony Gordon, dribbled past the Norway defense, and fired in with a clinical finish.
The goal came just before halftime and changed the mood inside the Miami stadium. Norway had taken the lead through Andreas Schjelderup, but England had been the better side overall.
Norway had a great chance to score a second goal, but Alexander Sorloth wasted the opportunity by taking too long to decide what to do when Erling Haaland was open for a simple pass. England's Harry Kane was also unlucky, having a goal disallowed for offside just before halftime.
Despite Norway posing a threat, particularly through Haaland, England looked to be in a good position to win the game. Bellingham's performance was particularly impressive, with the 23-year-old raising his game for his country at a big tournament.
Bellingham's ability to carry the national side has been seen before, and if he and Kane continue to play at this level, England could go on to win the World Cup. The game is delicately poised, but England have been the better side overall.
