Miami Gardens, Florida — Jude Bellingham scored twice on Saturday to lift England to a 2-1 extra-time victory over Norway in the FIFA World Cup quarter-final. Andreas Schjelderup put Norway ahead in the 36th minute before Bellingham equalised in first-half stoppage time and then netted the winner three minutes into extra time. England advances to the semi-finals and will face either Argentina or Switzerland, who were scheduled to play later on Saturday in Kansas City. Manager Thomas Tuchel described the performance as difficult but welcomed progression; match reports record Bellingham's six tournament goals and confirm Norway's elimination on July 11.
