The match had been largely uninspiring until Norway broke the deadlock at 36th minute through Andreas Schjelderup, a goal that sparked the contest into life. England responded through Bellingham, whose strike brought his side back on level terms at before the interval (45+2).

Harry Kane thought he had put England ahead just before half-time, but his effort was ruled out for offside, leaving the teams locked at 1-1 heading into the second half.
