Bellingham's Brace Secures World Cup Semi-Final Berth for England Over Norway

England secured their place in the semi-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a dramatic 2-1 victory over Norway in extra time at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium. The match remained deadlocked until the 36th minute when Norway managed to break the scoring drought, with Andreas [Surname Not Provided in Sources] finding the back of the net.

However, the tide turned in England's favor thanks to a stellar performance from Jude Bellingham, who scored both of his team's goals. His brace was enough to overcome Norway's early lead and send Gareth Southgate's squad through to the next round of the tournament. Player ratings highlighted Bellingham's crucial role in the triumph, though other players like Madueke were noted as struggling.
