The Route to the Last Eight
Norway have broken entirely new ground by reaching their first ever World Cup quarter final. Stale Solbakken’s squad finished as runners up in Group I behind France before executing two massive knockout wins. Erling Haaland scored a late winner against Ivory Coast in the Round of 32, followed by a stunning brace to eliminate five time champions Brazil 2-1 in the Round of 16.
England topped Group L but have been forced to fight exceptionally hard in the knockouts. Thomas Tuchel’s side needed two late Harry Kane goals to rescue a 2-1 comeback victory against DR Congo. The Three Lions then survived an absolute thriller against co hosts Mexico, winning 3-2 in the Azteca Stadium despite playing much of the match with ten men.
