By HARRY BAMFORTH, LIVE SPORTS COVERAGE REPORTER and NATHAN SALT - FOOTBALL REPORTER Follow Daily Mail Sport's live coverage of the latest updates as England seek to make just their third semi-final in the country's history as they take on Norway in the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Miami. England are getting a lot of heat tonight for that performance, but come on, let's step back a second and apply a bit of perspective. It's not exactly often England make it to this stage of the tournament. In fact, out of the four times they have now made it this far, only two of them have been in my lifetime, and I'm 26 (today, not that you're asking). Now, the semi-finals are where the journey has ended on two of the previous three times England have made it there, but can they go a step further this time? We will find out next Wednesday. Jude Bellingham on Thomas Tuchel's comments in the mixed zone: Maybe, but maybe he doesn't know what it's like to play in those kind of conditions against Erling Haaland, Odegaard, Nusa, Sorloth. That's not an easy team to play against. So, I think we've tried to create a positive environment. We should continue that going into the final four. I can't speak highly enough of the lads. You're not going to win every game, popping the ball and making 1,000 passes. Sometimes you have to win dirty, and we've done that again tonight.Share01:09'Argentina rely on Messi, so why can't we rely on Bellingham and Kane?'Micah Richards, former England defender, on BBC Sport: Today they came into the game and were lucky. 100% they were lucky. Thomas Tuchel is totally right with what he's saying but do you have the courage and desire to get through in difficult times.Argentina rely on Lionel Messi and everyone praises that and loves that. We rely on Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane and it's not a problem. Yes, we want to see higher tempo. Yes, we want to see more rotations. Yes, we want to see us defend better. But we got the job done and we've not been able to say that about previous England teams of late.Share01:02Fans celebrate in the streetsThere is no panic on the streets of London tonight, that's for sure. (Please tell me you get that reference...) Instead, the England fans have hit the streets in their hundreds and thousands to celebrate that win. PSG fans should take note: this is how you celebrate a win on the streets without smashing up shops and cars. Harry Kane, England captain, speaking to BBC Sport: Massive effort. It felt tougher than the game in Mexico. The heat and humidity did really affect us. We had to dig deep and find our way especially in the second half and extra-time. The determination and the grit were the difference today. It was a fairly even game in terms of possession and chances but when you've got someone like Jude [Bellingham] who can change the game for us like he did again today, that's obviously a big factor. It's the boys' heart and desire that got us over the line.On Bellingham: I keep talking about these hero moments. It seems to be me or Jude who are getting the goals at the moment but everyone was outstanding again today. Jude gets the plaudits and rightly so - two greats goals in the most important game to get us through to the semi-finals. You need match winners to win any trophy and get far in any tournament. You need matchwinners who are willing to dig deep and find it within to drag us over the line - Jude has done that for us today.On his disallowed goal: I thought it was a pretty close offside. It was annoying at that time. I also thought I had a penalty, which could've been easily given. But in the end, it doesn't matter. We are into the semi-finals and I will take it all day.On reaching the last four: Our message before the game today was to release the handbrake and go. I have watched us train and seen the ability, especially in the final third. We haven't quite put all that together quite yet. But we are in the semi-finals of a World Cup not having played our best football. If we can find it in Wednesday's game, it could be the difference between winning and losing this tournament. We will enjoy it, recover and preparations will start for another game in a few days.Share00:49'Dancing on tables in Newcastle'John Siddle in Newcastle: England fans were dancing on tables and chanting 'It’s Coming Home' after downing 10,000 pints in the fan zone in Newcastle. Supporters then marched into the city centre en masse to carry on the celebrations after hero Jude Bellingham set up a semi-final with Argentina or Switzerland.Share00:45Scenes of celebrationI would normally say these celebrations tell the whole story, but I'm not sure they do after that series of interviews. But hey, either way, the boys had a good time after the final whistle. Alan Shearer, former England striker, speaking on BBC Sport: I loved Tuchel's interview. Over the years we might have had someone come and say that we stuck together and we were brilliant and you have to give hem credit for doing it - he was having none of that.That is his great mentality and how successful he has been. England had to suffer, particularly in the second half, and when he speaks about mentality, the way they found a way to get back into the game, the way they found a way to keep going.Share00:35Haaland locked up Alfie Haaland may think the referee was to blame for that result, but maybe he should look at his own son's performance. Putting it bluntly, Erling Haaland was rubbish. It's not often I say that, but when Haaland isn't banging in the goals, he doesn't exactly do a lot else. The proof is in the pudding... Haaland only managed 21 touches of the ball in over 105 minutes of football. Do you know how mental that is? That's barely any. In fact, it's so little that the only England player not to touch the ball more was Dan Burn, who came on in the 111th minute. It's not often Haaland has a stinker like that, either. England are the first team to keep Erling Haaland from scoring in a competitive international match since Austria on 13th October 2024 (636 days ago). He just failed to turn up today. Disappointment for Erling Haaland tonight as his and Norway's World Cup campaign comes to an end. His father Alf-Inge Haaland, who appeared to make a rude gesture with his hands after England were awarded their eventually overturned penalty, has now had his say on social media. He has tweeted 'Well done Bellingham and referee' after England progressed. It's amazing to think how young Jude Bellingham actually is. The midfielder is playing in his fourth major tournament for England, yet is only 23 years of age. Yep, you are reading it right. In fact, Bellingham has just become the second-youngest player to score two or more goals in successive FIFA World Cup knockout stage games behind only Pelé in 1958 (17y 249d). First, you have Thomas Tuchel showing his mentality, showcasing that he wasn't best pleased with the performance despite the result. Then when Jude Bellingham hears that, he rolls his eyes and responds 'whatever'. Quite incredible. I mean, we shouldn't read too much into it; both were clearly emotional. Bellingham had just put in the shift of his life in some of the hottest conditions he has ever played in, so that's why he responded like he did. If anything, the two interviews show that we have real winners in this England set-up, from the head coach to the star man. It can only be a good thing, in my opinion. I’ve visited Norway (an amazing country) and...المصدر: Daily Mail | Source: Daily Mail
