😱 No Torbjørn after all! New rule kicks in for England v Norway | OneFootball

The Norwegians were already celebrating their second goal of the day, but referee Clément Turpin was alerted and reviewed the scenes before the supposed 2-1 on the monitor once again. 

After a VAR review, and then in the view of the referee as well, Erling Haaland had been too aggressive in his challenge against Elliot Anderson. The shove by the City star led to the disallowing of Torbjørn Heggem’s goal, which had restored the lead after a corner. 

Curiously, instead of a free kick for England—even though the goal was disallowed for a foul—Norway were awarded another corner. The reason: since the infringement took place before the set piece was taken, a rule introduced for the World Cup came into effect, leading to the corner being retaken.
