The five-time world champions suffered a shock 2-1 defeat to Norway on Sunday, crashing out of the tournament in their earliest World Cup elimination since 1966.

England and Norway will meet in one of the quarter-final clashes at the 2026 FIFA World Cup after the Three Lions edged past co-hosts Mexico in a thrilling Round of 16 encounter.

“I asked for a review because I didn’t think it was a foul,” Trump told reporters at the White House. “All I did was ask for a review, I didn’t say you have to do this.”

Brazil’s hopes of ending their long wait for World Cup glory came to a painful end after a 2-1 defeat to Norway in the Round of 16, with Erling Haaland scoring twice to eliminate the five-time champions.

“Yesterday’s decision to suspend for a probationary period of a year the implementation of the one-match automatic suspension following the red card issued to the player Folarin Balogun crossed a red line,” read UEFA’s strongly worded statement.

Tottenham announced Monday the signing of Italy midfielder Sandro Tonali from fellow Premier League club Newcastle in a deal that could go up to a club record £100 million ($133.4 million).
