​Follow for live updates on the England-Norway World Cup showdown! All eyes will be on Erling Haaland as Norway faces England in the World Cup quarterfinals on Saturday, July 11. Haaland has propelled Norway to their first-ever quarterfinal appearance at a World Cup and will seek to guide his team past the Three Lions in Miami. The 25-year-old is chasing a Golden Boot at his World Cup debut, having already tallied seven goals in four matches so far in this tournament. Stay with us for live coverage of Haaland’s performance against England.
Erling Haaland is making his World Cup bow in 2026 after years of breaking goal-scoring records across Europe, aiming to lift Norway on a deep run and end their long wait for progress since 1998. The prolific striker has earned three Golden Boot awards as the Premier League’s top scorer in four seasons, including a record 36 goals in the 2022-23 campaign. To date at the 2026 World Cup, Haaland has found the back of the net seven times in four appearances.
With 62 goals in 54 caps for Norway, Haaland stands as the country’s all-time leading scorer and a benchmark for the team’s ambitions. Manchester City’s talisman continues to be a central figure as Norway set out to make a memorable run on football’s biggest stage.
Once the knockout stage begins, the World Cup adopts a single-elimination format. Of the 32 remaining teams, a bracket dictates that the field will be halved at each successive round until a champion is crowned. The only exception is the third-place playoff, which pits the two semifinal losers against one another before the final match.
