A soccer match is moving crypto markets today. Norway faces England in the FIFA World Cup 2026 quarterfinal at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, and the surrounding digital asset activity is worth paying attention to.
Kickoff is scheduled for 2pm PT / 5pm ET on July 11.
The match itself, for context
England enters as the heavy favorite, ranked fourth in the FIFA world standings. Norway sits at 31st, though that number undersells what this squad has done at this tournament: reaching the quarterfinals marks the first time Norway has ever advanced this far in a World Cup.
Harry Kane has scored six goals in five matches heading into today. On the other side, Erling Haaland needs no introduction to anyone who has watched a soccer match in the last three years.
