Norway vs. England player ratings: Live grades for Harry Kane, others in 2026 World Cup quarterfinal

Two of the great goal scorers at the 2026 FIFA World Cup clash as Harry Kane and England take on Erling Haaland and Norway in the quarterfinals from Miami on Saturday.

The Three Lions endured a grueling test in the Round of 16, as they stood tall at the pressure cooker of Estadio Azteca, defeating Mexico 3-2 despite playing the final half-hour with 10 men after Jarrel Quansah was sent off. Thomas Tuchel's side passed the endurance examination with flying colors, but will have to refocus and recover for another tall order.

Haaland has navigated Norway further into a World Cup tournament than ever before, dispatching Brazil in impressive fashion last time out as they rowed past the Round of 16 for the first time in national team history. The Man City superstar scored both goals in that 2-1 victory, proving that the Vikings are a formidable side with him at the helm.

The Sporting News brings you a full list of player ratings for the match, analyzing both team's individual performances from the opening kickoff to the final whistle.
