Jude Bellingham was the star of the show as England defeated Norway 2-1 to reach the World Cup semi-final.
Two goals from Bellingham, in the first half and in extra time, secured the Three Lions' path to the final four on what was a swelteringly hot night in Miami.
Andreas Schjelderup put Norway in front on 36 minutes when his attempted cross flew over the head of goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
But Bellingham equalised in the second minute of additional time in the first half, with Anthony Gordon's pinpoint pass finding the Real Madrid star to slide the ball beyond Orjan Nyland in the Norway goal.

Bellingham's strike buoyed an England side that had looked relatively quiet heading into half-time.
But they almost went behind again when Torbjorn Heggem headed home from close range on 55 minutes, but VAR adjudged Erling Haaland to have fouled Elliot Anderson in the build-up.
Bellingham then headed home when Nyland failed to gather Morgan Rogers' long-range strike in extra time.
VAR then intervened to Norway's aid to overturn a penalty decision in favour of England and Djed Spence, with the Three Lions defender deemed to have fouled the attacker first.
England player ratings in full vs Norway
After all that, here's how we rated the players:
Jordan Pickford - 5/10
Didn’t look as though he expected Schjelderup’s attempted cross to go towards the top corner. Still not one he'll want to watch back. Did what he needed to do for the rest of the game.
Ezri Konsa - 5/10
Failed to cut out the cross that directly led to Norway’s opener. Did his job otherwise but he'll no doubt be hoping he can move back to the centre for the semis.
John Stones - 7/10
Restored to the side as part of the reshuffle caused by Quansah's red card. Was responsible for preventing Sorloth from making it 2-0 to Norway. Really positive night for the now former Manchester City defender.
Marc Guehi - 8/10
Struggled with Haaland’s physicality early on and was caught out a couple of times. The fact that Haaland was replaced in extra time tells you how the rest of his game went. Huge block in extra time.
Nico O’Reilly - 7/10
Seems to be slightly going under the radar this tournament but another solid performance from the City man, who adds so much by drifting into midfield.
Declan Rice - 5/10
Looked like a player who had been struggling with illness in the first 45 minutes and it wasn't a surprise that he didn't re-emerge for the second half.
Elliot Anderson - 8/10
Tidy in the first half and combined well with Gordon and O'Reilly on the left-hand side. Was a foul on him by Haaland for Norway's disallowed second goal. Really stepped up in the second half.
Noni Madueke - 5/10
Replaced his Arsenal team-mate Saka in the starting XI but didn't make a significant impact. Tuchel swapped them around again for the second half.
Jude Bellingham - 10/10
His equaliser lifted the entire team going into half-time. Then did it again in extra time. What more could you ask for?
Anthony Gordon - 7/10
Quiet first 45 minutes but then popped up with a superb assist for Bellingham. Making a habit of the big moments.
Harry Kane - 6/10
Claims of a foul in the build-up to Norway’s opener but too easily dispossessed. A rare mistake from the England captain on what was a rare goalless night.
Eberechi Eze - 6/10
Brought on at half-time to replace the struggling Rice. Had a chance late on in extra time which was saved by Nyland.
Bukayo Saka - 6/10
Given the circumstances behind his lack of World Cup minutes so far, some encouraging signs from the Arsenal winger. Should start against Argentina.
Reece James - 6/10
England will be desperately hoping he's fully fit for Argentina. An important cameo in that respect, and he did his fair share defensively as well.
Djed Spence - 9/10
As far as substitute appearances go, you couldn't ask for much more. A threat in attack when he got the ball, almost won a penalty, and did his job defensively too. What a week he has had - he was superb against Mexico as well.
Morgan Rogers - 7/10
Had the shot which led to Bellingham's equaliser. What a player to be able to bring off the bench.
Dan Burn - 7/10
Brought on with 10 minutes left to do exactly what he did against Mexico - stop the opposition at all costs. And he did.
