England defeated Norway 2-1 in a World Cup fixture, according to a final score published by ESPN on 11 July 2026. The result was listed as a confirmed full-time score and not a live or provisional update. The victory extends England's run in the tournament and keeps the side in contention as the group stage progressed. Norway, led by forward Erling Haaland, were unable to overturn a two-goal deficit, with England's tally proving decisive. The match formed part of a busy World Cup schedule that has produced a string of high-scoring encounters. Portugal, Argentina, Morocco and Brazil all recorded wins in recent group fixtures, while Cristiano Ronaldo ended a goal drought against Uzbekistan and Lionel Messi set a new World Cup scoring record in Argentina's win over Austria, according to The Guardian. England's next fixture was not detailed in the ESPN listing. Organisers have not yet released an updated group table through the monitored feed. Source: ESPN, 11 July 2026.
