Norway thought that it took a second-half lead over England on Saturday, but the goal was chalked off after a VAR review due to a foul on Erling Haaland.

Torbjørn Heggem scored on a rebound during the World Cup quarterfinal in Miami, appearing to put Norway on top in the 55th minute.
But referee Clément Turpin was called over to the monitor shortly after the ball went into the net, with VAR Jerome Brisard spotting a potential foul.
Just before the corner kick was taken, Haaland shoved England midfielder Elliot Anderson with both hands, sending him to the turf. Haaland then was in the mix as the corner came in and bounced to Patrick Berg, whose shot was saved by Jordan Pickford and bounced straight to Heggem.
