England battled to victory over Norway in Miami to reach the last four of the World Cup thanks to a Jude Bellingham double.Thomas Tuchel’s side went behind in the 36th minute when a cross-shot from Norway’s Andreas Schjelderup was misjudged by Jordan Pickford in the England goal and went in off the far post.Bellingham equalised for England just before half-time, collecting Anthony Gordon’s pass, taking a touch to drift into the box and then rifling the ball into the Norway net. The Norwegians thought they had gone back in front in the second half when Torbjorn Heggem turned the ball in after a goalmouth scramble – but it was disallowed with Erling Haaland adjudged to have fouled Elliot Anderson.And Bellingham scored the winner at the start of extra-time banging in a rebound after a Morgan Rogers shot had been spilled by Norway keeper Orjan Nyland. Daily Mail Sport’s Chief Football Reporter CRAIG HOPE was at the Miami Stadium to give his verdict on the England players, and you can make your judgments too with our new ratings tool. Jude Bellingham celebrates his winning goal against Norway in Miami that puts England into the last four of the World Cup England’s players celebrate in front of their fans at the end of the match in Miami ENGLAND (4-2-3-1)Jordan Pickford – 5/10Not the assured Pickford we saw in Mexico City and was caught out by Schjelderup’s cross-shot for first goal. That seemed to unnerve him and later clumsily shovelled routine save around post and punched when needing to catch. Will need to rediscover composure in semi-final. England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford can only watch after misjudging Andreas Schjelderup’s cross which flies into the top corner of his net, giving Norway the leadEzri Konsa – 7Had to get closer to Schjelderup in stopping cross for Norway opener and was too slow to the danger. But he recovered and saved a goal when winning goalmouth header after Ajer effort hit bar. Had given his lot by time of substitution.John Stones – 8Did well to intercept early pass as Haaland threatened to break clear but was fortunate when his lapse almost led to big chance soon after. That unsettled England. But like others at back he steadied and made some key interventions, including several headed clearances. England’s centre-half John Stones has the ball nicked away from him by Norway’s Patrick Berg in Miami Marc Guehi – 8Haaland targeted him from the off and both he and Stones had moments during first half when they were flustered. But he settled as game went on and started to come out on top in duels against Haaland. Huge block in extra-time.Nico O’Reilly – 7Was smart in targeting Norway weakness down their right and had several promising moments in attack. Unlucky when one cross had no takers. Physical battle against Sorloth asked questions but equipped himself well.Elliot Anderson – 8Strong start, getting on ball and picking passes all over park. Won ball at onset of equaliser – even if aided by spidercam – and was then smart in setting Gordon free. Not his fault but part of midfield that lost control for large period. Still, effort and work-rate were immense.Declan Rice – 4Did not look right after a week battling illness. Movement was awkward and set-piece delivery poor. It was no surprise to see him replaced at break. He shouldn’t have started, especially given he’s also nursing hamstring issue.Noni Madueke – 4Usual moments of frustration early on when crossing out of play and too many attacks broke down when he was involved. There were some important recoveries the other way, but output was poor and no shock when hooked at half-time.Jude Bellingham – 9England’s saviour, again. A quiet first half by his standards but burst into life for first goal in stoppage-time. That was all about his power and poise and his match-winner was instinct and desire. England would be going home without him. MOM. Jude Bellingham rifles his shot into the Norway net to draw England level just before half-timeAnthony Gordon – 6Slow start but always looked likely to get joy up against Ryerson and he soon had beating of him. Brilliantly-weighted pass into Bellingham for equaliser. Didn’t get at full-back enough after break and was sacrificed amid tactical reshuffle.Harry Kane (captain) – 5Caught out for Norway goal and hadn’t touched ball in box come half-time. Did get half chance in area after break but execution was too slow. One clever header saved. Not his best night but battled until the very end.SUBSTITUTESBukayo Saka (on for Madueke, 46min) – 6Brought on to be an upgrade on Madueke and had one dribble that deserved goal and later a shot well saved.Eberechi Eze (on for Rice, 46min) – 5 Moved into No 10 role as Bellingham dropped deeper but didn’t do enough to impact. Reece James (on for Gordon, 71min) – 6Went into midfield to offer more resistance but Norway still bossed England. Got stronger in extra-time. Djed Spence goes down in the box and wins a penalty only to see it overturned by VARDjed Spence (on for O’Reilly, 86min) – 7Came close to nicking late winner when closing keeper down. A lively and important cameo.Morgan Rogers (on for Konsa, 89min) – 7His shot led to Bellingham winner and that’s what he was brought on to do.Dan Burn (on for Bellingham, 111min) – 6Big cheer when he won header with first touch after coming on.MANAGERThomas Tuchel – 6His team were in control until the first drinks break – and then they weren’t. The German’s changes did not have desired effect and England looked beaten in the second half. Introduction of Rogers and genius of Bellingham won game, but England were lucky.
Norway (4-2-3-1)Nyland 4; Ryerson 5 (Aursnes 60, 6), Ajer 6, Heggem 5, Wolfe 5 (Pedersen 90, 5); Berge 7, Berg 7; Sorloth 5 (Nusa 68, 7), Odegaard 8, Schjelderup 6 (Bobb 68, 6); Haaland 4 (Stand Larsen 105, 5)Manager: Stale Solbakken – 6RefereeClement Turpin (France) – 6Got big calls right – including allowing Norway opener and later disallowing a second and reversed England penalty, albeit with help of VAR. But he needed technology to help him for Bellingham’s first goal after ball clipped TV cable in build-up – it should not have stood.
