## Resource

Billi looks back at the Round of 16 before moving onto to the four Quarterfinals, taking place on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. England and Norway meet in the quarter finals of the World Cup on Saturday night in a battle between two sides who have just secured historic results. The Three Lions had struggled in the early stages of the competition, but they produced one of their greatest ever performances at the Estadio Azteca in the early hours of Monday morning to knock out co-hosts Mexico. El Tri had lost just two of their previous 89 competitive matches at the imposing stadium but England found a way to get the job done. Norway’s last 16 victory was perhaps more impressive. The Scandinavian nation, with a population of around 5.6million, downed record champions Brazil 2-1 at the MetLife Stadium to reach the last eight of a World Cup for the first time, thanks to a pair of late goals from Manchester City’s Erling Haaland. The winner of the clash are likely to face world champions Argentina, who are expected to get past Switzerland, especially with FIFA seemingly in their corner. The Argies needed an incredible comeback to see off Egypt, but were heavily aided by some very favourable and controversial officiating.
