England were spared conceding during their FIFA World Cup 2026 fixture against Norway after a goal by Torbjorn Heggem was disallowed following a VAR intervention. Heggem's strike would have restored Norway's lead, but it was ruled out after a foul was identified in the build-up, keeping England level at that stage of the match.
The disallowed goal came about because Erling Haaland was judged to have fouled England's Elliot Anderson in the passage of play leading to the goal. The reprieve keeps England on course in the tournament, with the side due to feature in the World Cup semi-final, shown live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Wednesday 15 July at 19:00 BST.
- VAR overturned Norway's goal against England at World Cup 2026.
- Haaland's foul on Elliot Anderson led to the disallowance.
- England play their semi-final on Wednesday 15 July, 19:00 BST.
