Norway’s run at the 2026 FIFA World Cup ends in a quarter-final defeat to England, and Alfie Haaland reacts publicly to what he calls questionable decisions. The match finishes 2-1 to England after extra time, leaving Erling Haaland’s side eliminated and headed home. Multiple reports describe an angry response from Alfie, who posts a short message on social media that is widely interpreted as a dig at referees following the game. The controversy centers on officiating and VAR-related calls. One debated moment involves England’s goal that Norway and some observers dispute, though FIFA later says the equaliser is correctly awarded after review using connected ball technology. Reports also note that Alfie’s reaction includes broader criticism beyond the final goal call, referencing the match’s overall officiating and Norway’s attacking choices. While the reports agree on Norway’s elimination, England’s win after extra time, and Alfie Haaland’s public criticism, they differ in how specifically they characterize his remarks.
