Bellingham Fires England Into World Cup Semifinals With Stunning Comeback Against Norway

48 minutes ago·1 min

Jude Bellingham delivered a performance for the ages, scoring twice to carry England past Norway 2-1 in extra time and into the FIFA World Cup semifinals, with the match played under intense Florida heat.

Norway drew first blood, leaving England with an uphill battle, but Bellingham refused to let his side bow out. The midfielder produced two clinical finishes to overturn the deficit and seal a place in the last four — a result that underlines just how vital he has become to the England setup.

Erling Haaland, Norway's talismanic striker and arguably the most dangerous forward on the planet, struggled to impose himself on the contest. Despite carrying the hopes of an entire nation, Haaland was kept quiet throughout — unable to add to Norway's solitary goal and powerless to prevent Bellingham from stealing the show.

England advance to the World Cup semifinals on the back of a gritty, inspired display — the kind of result that announces a team's tournament credentials to the world.
