Jordan Pickford: Became England’s most-capped World Cup player, but misread Andreas Schjelderup’s cross for Norway’s opener. A shaky display from the No 1. 5
Ezri Konsa: Typically reliable and showed why he’s now a mainstay. Strong defensively, with limited thrust going forward given it’s not his natural role. One errant pass to John Stones nearly gifted Norway a chance. 7
Marc Guehi: Handled Erling Haaland superbly, especially impressive after recent hamstring issues. Saw more of the ball than ideal with Norway sitting deep, but remained assured. 8
John Stones: Read the game brilliantly and made a vital interception that otherwise would have set up Haaland. Did get caught in possession in a risky area and was fortunate it didn’t cost a goal. 7
Nico O’Reilly: Growing in authority as the tournament progresses, managing a demanding role as both left-back and an inside-left option in possession. Was pinned by Alexander Sorloth once and nearly punished when the striker fired over. 7
Elliot Anderson: Started higher up and his powerful run initiated the move for England’s equaliser. Dropped into the No 6 role after Rice went off. 7
Declan Rice: Used as the deepest midfielder, perhaps to shield against direct balls to Haaland and Sorloth or due to his recent illness. Short of full sharpness and withdrawn at half-time. 6
Jude Bellingham: Once again dragged England through difficult spells, scoring both goals. In this form he always gives the Three Lions a chance, and he’s hit another gear at this World Cup. 9.5
Noni Madueke: Had early opportunities to run at his marker but didn’t make them count. A flat first half and taken off at the break. 5
Anthony Gordon: Always looked to attack, supplying energy despite the heat and crossing for Bellingham’s equaliser. 8
Harry Kane: Denied space by a well-drilled Norway back line and had a first-half finish ruled out for offside. Dropped deep to link play and held the ball up when possible. 6
