England Edges Norway in Extra Time Thriller to Secure World Cup Semi-Final Spot

The Lionesses booked their ticket to the semi-finals of the World Cup following a gruelling 2-1 win against Norway that required an additional 30 minutes of play. Norway drew first blood in the 36th minute, with Andreas Schjelderup finding the back of the net to give his side a narrow advantage.

However, England responded before the halftime whistle, with young sensation Jude Bellingham levelling the score. The match remained deadlocked through the second half, forcing the teams into extra time.

It was Bellingham who ultimately proved to be the difference-maker, netting his second goal of the contest to seal England's progression to the final four of the prestigious tournament.
