Despite displaying strong performances, Belgium, Norway, and England managed to overturn late deficits and secure qualification at their African opponents' expense. In the Belgium versus Senegal match, Belgium scored two goals before the final whistle, and Tillemans added a third in the 89th minute to win 3-2. Meanwhile, in the Norway versus Ivory Coast game, Haaland scored in the 87th minute, turning the game around and humiliating the Ivorians. In the England versus Democratic Republic of the Congo match, Harry Kane scored a last-minute, decisive goal, dashing Congo’s hopes of advancing.
