Norway fans gathered at the Nor-Bu Lodge in Rockaway on Saturday to cheer on their team as it takes on England in the FIFA World Cup quarterfinals in Miami.

The lodge, home to the Norwegian Fraternal Organization, opened its doors ahead of kickoff as supporters filled the venue, waved flags, enjoyed food and drinks and hope to see Norway continue its tournament run.

The game marks Norway's first World Cup appearance since 1998.

Many supporters are keeping a close eye on star striker Erling Haaland, nicknamed "The Terminator" and "The Striking Viking." Haaland entered the match among the leading contenders for the tournament's Golden Boot, awarded to the player who scores the most goals during the World Cup.
