+4 to the half.

Get the F in!!!

Thank goodness. 1-1 score!

Oh that cross to set up England’s tieing goal.

Well, now you mention it…

England goal.

World class goal there.

I have to think that the goalie misplayed that.

England have looked woeful in the last 15 minutes but that was a terrific goal.

I agree with that entirely

Yeah, nice work by Gordon to find the ball in, but great run and really nice finish by Bellingham.

I dunno, you have to cover the near post and force him to make a harder angle shot to the far post.

Nice finish but clearly off

I think Strong and Holden are both rooting for England.

Kane mistimes his run and robs me from looking like a genius.

Chipadelic.

Gonna be the same in Kansas City tonight. Right now it’s 88 degrees with 55% humidity.

1-1 half time.

Kane’s effort was pretty nice.

Oppresive heat is dictating the flow of the game. Norway scored from a mishit cross and nobody can convince me otherwise but England looked utterly toothless until Bellingham’s brilliance.

Yeh both sides look like they just playing to last 90 minutes rather than going for it. Norway should’ve made more of that chance they had when Haaland should’ve received the ball when England were stretched but they have somehow got a goal without a decent shot on goal (Haaland’s header was comfortably saved, and the goal was a complete fluke). Meanwhile England have had two decent efforts, one resulting in a goal and the other a mile offside.

You’re right. I had thought the goalie overplayed the near side but he basically forced a great shot to beat him.
