England advanced to the World Cup semi-finals with a 2-1 extra-time win over Norway, driven by two goals from Jude Bellingham. A reversed VAR penalty decision and a disallowed Norway goal proved pivotal. Alf-Inge Haaland reacted angrily to the officiating, making an obscene gesture toward fans and later criticising the outcome on social media. Norway’s early lead and subsequent efforts were undone by fouls confirmed through VAR, while England progressed to face Argentina or Switzerland.

Jude Bellingham credited his mother’s advice for helping him avoid a suspension and score twice as England came from behind to beat Norway and reach the World Cup semi‑finals. He praised his teammates’ resilience, defended the effort required against strong opposition, and responded to Thomas Tuchel’s earlier comments by emphasising the difficulty of the match. Bellingham highlighted the psychological strength shown by the squad and their ability to handle adversity as they advance to the final four.

Dane Bowers reflects on his past relationship with Katie Price and comments on her new husband Lee Andrews, whom he describes as bizarre and prone to making untrue claims. Speaking while promoting Zingo Bingo, Bowers says he remembers little of his time with Price but acknowledges shared struggles involving jealousy and public scrutiny. Price’s new documentary revisits their relationship, portraying Bowers as the love of her life, a label he questions. He agreed to take part in the documentary due to his relationship with the production team and support from his current partner.
