Norway fans doing 'Viking Row' in Miami Beach before playing England

The viral Norwegian chant drew crowds on South Beach as fans rallied behind a quarterfinal matchup with England.

  • On Friday, Norwegian fans transformed Ocean Drive into a sea of celebration as they prepared for their World Cup quarterfinal against England at Hard Rock Stadium.
  • Ole, known as 'Mr. Row Row,' created the famous chant over a decade ago, drawing inspiration from Norse sailors like Leif Eriksen who rowed ships to the New World.
  • Inside stadiums across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, fans simulate rowing a ship in unison while chanting, and players have joined by beating drums and leading celebrations after matches.
  • England fan Steve Bracknall dismissed the celebration, claiming midfielder Jude Bellingham will "put them to the sword," while England supporters remain confident despite Norwegian enthusiasm.
  • Both fan bases are expected to bring intense energy to South Florida for the 5 p.m. kickoff, as the World Cup atmosphere has become a global spectacle with supporters from multiple nations.
