3D Replay Suggests Spidercam Wire Deflected Goal in England vs Norway Clash

Norway’s World Cup run ended in a 2-1 quarter-final loss to England but left fans furious over a controversial equaliser. Advanced 3D broadcast analysis appears to show the ball grazing an overhead spidercam cable just before Jude Bellingham’s first-half strike. FIFA’s official sensor data recorded no impact, so the goal stood. According to tournament rules, any ball touching the wire should have stopped play immediately and resulted in a dropped ball. Norway manager Ståle Solbakken and midfielder Sander Berge voiced their frustration at the decision. A second Norwegian goal was also disallowed by VAR for an Erling Haaland foul, compounding their sense of injustice.
