Key Points:
- Arsenal legend Ian Wright criticized Norway's complaints after their 2-1 loss to England, blaming Norway's own errors rather than refereeing decisions for the defeat.
- Wright dismissed Alf-Inge Haaland's sarcastic social media comments and refuted claims about a disallowed goal, calling the foul by Haaland on Bellingham a clear and unjustified push.
- Manchester United's Roy Keane acknowledged some refereeing decisions favored England but emphasized that officiating was not the reason Norway lost, while also taking a jab at Alf-Inge Haaland's behavior during the match.
- Gary Neville supported the view that England was not lucky due to refereeing, contrasting this game with a previous match against Ghana where England benefited from a missed penalty call.
- Despite Erling Haaland's impressive World Cup performance with seven goals, Keane noted that Norway's overall team limitations and lack of service hindered his impact in the quarter-final.
