England meet Norway tonight for a World Cup semi-final place, a 10pm kick-off in Miami. The tie carries a distinct Leeds United connection through Erling Haaland.

yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk notes that the Norway forward was born in Leeds in July 2000, during dad Alf-Inge Haaland’s stint with the Whites.

Alf-Inge joined Leeds in July 1997 and left three years later in the summer of 2000.
