England and Norway have named their starting sides for their World Cup 2026 quarter-final in Miami on Saturday.
The Three Lions ended co-hosts Mexico’s perfect record in the last 16, Jude Bellingham scoring twice in Mexico City.
Norway knocked out record five-time champions Brazil hours earlier, including two goals for last season’s Premier League top scorer, Erling Haaland.
The winners of the tie will meet the victors of the game between Argentina and Switzerland in the semi-finals in Atlanta on Wednesday (20:00 BST).
