During the quarter-final match of the 2026 World Cup between England and Norway, a highly contentious moment arose regarding Jude Bellingham's equalising goal. Norway's players and supporters protested vehemently, claiming that the ball had made contact with the spidercam's cable before entering the net, thus asserting that the goal should not have counted. This perspective was supported by comments from Norway's camp, including statements from Erling Haaland's father, who suggested the team was wronged by the officiating.
In response to these claims, FIFA stated that no contact was made between the ball and the spidercam, based on advanced technology measures including the Snicko system, which indicated that the event had not disrupted the ball's path. The governing body maintained its stance on the validity of the goal, asserting it was correctly awarded. Additionally, the situation has sparked discussions about new regulations, particularly concerning interference from camera equipment during play, as it was the first time these rules were implemented at the tournament. As a result of the match, England triumphed over Norway and secured their place in the semi-finals.
