After patient build up from England, Gordon wins the first corner of the game.
It's a poor delivery from Rice, with Norway easily clearing.
No real chances for either side yet.

Norway win a free after Madueke is called offside on the right.
Norway are able to work the ball into the box with a long ball, with space opening up for Haaland, who tries to cushion it for Sorloth, but England clear it.

4'
England is enjoying an early spell of possession, trying a build-up on the right wing before switching play.
Madueke was the first to test Norway's defence, running at pace but there's too much power on his cross and it's out for a goal kick.

Both sides on pitch for national anthem
Both sides are out on the pitch for the national anthems.
There appears to be a majority of England fans in the crowd, dressed in their traditional white jerseys, but there's also plenty of Norwegian red among the 65,000-strong audience.
A minute's silence was also held for South African player Jayden Adams, who played in the World Cup and died in Cape Town on Saturday morning, aged 25.

Heat advisory warning in Miami
A heat advisory warning has been issued for Miami, with the temperature at 31C but a feels-like temperature pushing 40C as we approach the 5pm local time kick-off.
FIFA's controversial hydration breaks will no doubt come in handy today.

Norway boss Ståle Solbakken has made one change to the side that beat Brazil, with Andreas Schjelderup replacing Antonio Nusa on the left wing.

Welcome to our coverage
Thanks for joining us for the first of TWO cracking quarter-finals today.
England fans, as ever, are hoping football's coming home, while much of the rest of the world has become fascinated by Norway's Erling Haaland, the gentle viking who's nearly 2 metres tall.
We will be covering all the Norway v England action when the quarter-final kicks off at 7 AM AEST, and you can watch live on SBS.
Norway stunned five-time world champions Brazil with a 2-1 win in the Round of 16, thanks in part to Haaland.
Or maybe it's a switch in Norway's approach to youth sports that's spurred the Nordic nation into its first-ever World Cup quarter-final.
Norway now face England in the quarter-final, a country they famously once invaded. England have had a shakier run this World Cup, coming from behind to see off Congo DR in the Round of 32.
But their hard-won 3-2 victory against Mexico at the high-altitude Estadio Azteca was a win for the ages and the confidence boost they were looking for.
