England is hoping to win its first World Cup title since 1966 at the 2026 edition of the tournament. To achieve that goal, the Three Lions will have to get past an upstart Norway squad that has emerged as a legitimate threat at the 2026 World Cup.
Norway has ridden a stellar showing by Erling Haaland – who is in the thick of the Golden Boot race with seven goals – to its first World Cup quarterfinal appearance. The country is fresh off a 2-1 upset of Brazil and will be looking to make England the next victim of its underdog run.
England has yet to lose at the 2026 World Cup and is coming off an impressive 3-2 victory over Mexico at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. El Tri hadn't lost at that venue since 2013, but a multi-goal effort from Jude Bellingham along with a Harry Kane penalty was enough to get the Three Lions through, even as they spent most of the second half playing with 10 men after a Jarell Quansah red card.
England's matchup against Norway figures to be a tough one. It isn't just because Ståle Solbakken's side's potent offense. The Three Lions could find themselves fatigued after playing at high altitude in Mexico City, and doing so while down a man.
Still, England is favored to knock off its upstart counterpart and continue the country's long-awaited quest to earn a second World Cup title.
Here's what to know about England's quarterfinal match against Norway, including where it will be played and how to watch it:
'HE'S AN ANIMAL': Erling Haaland makes Norway a real World Cup threat
The Norway vs. England World Cup quarterfinal will be played at Miami Stadium – a.k.a. Hard Rock Stadium – in Miami Gardens, Florida. The match will begin at 5 p.m. ET and will be the penultimate 2026 World Cup quarterfinal.
Hard Rock Stadium is typically home to the NFL's Miami Dolphins but has hosted several matches throughout this year's World Cup. That includes Argentina's narrow, 3-2 victory over Cape Verde in the round of 32.

The winner of the Norway vs. England match will advance to the 2026 World Cup semifinals. There, they will face the winner of the final World Cup quarterfinal between Argentina and Switzerland.
Argentina and Switzerland will square off at 9 p.m. ET on Saturday, shortly after the Norway vs. England contest wraps up. La Albiceleste is favored to beat the Swiss side, but it's worth noting that Lionel Messi's squad was taken to extra time by Cape Verde in the round of 32 and had to recover from a 2-0 deficit to defeat Egypt in the round of 16.
If Switzerland can beat Argentina, it would guarantee that a European team would win the 2026 World Cup.
