Norway vs England LIVE, FIFA World Cup 2026: Match underway

The game has settled into a tactical battle, with England struggling to find a way through Norway's disciplined five-man midfield. A diagonal ball finds Anthony Gordon on the left, and he drives into the box before his cutback is deflected behind for a corner. Norway deal with the set-piece comfortably, heading it clear.

Noni Madueke needs to time his runs a little better. Harry Kane picks out a superb long ball over the top, and Madueke latches onto it, but the offside flag is raised before he can make anything of the chance.

The Scandinavians are content to sit deep in a compact shape, absorb England's possession, and look for quick balls over the top to release Erling Haaland. We've already seen a glimpse of that approach, but England's defence reacted well to step in and intercept the pass before it could reach the striker.

England have enjoyed the early possession, while Norway remain compact and organised defensively. An early cross from Noni Madueke drifts wide, but it underlines England's intent to play direct and exploit space on the counter.

Players from England and Norway observe a minute's silence in memory of South Africa midfielder Jayden Adams, whose death at the age of 25 was announced earlier today.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-final between England and Norway is underway at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. A place in the semi-finals is on the line as Harry Kane's England take on Erling Haaland's Norway in a blockbuster last-eight clash.
