Norway 1 England 2:
 Lucy Bronze stunner fires Three Lions into last eight
 
ENGLAND will face host nations Canada in the quarter-finals of the Women's World Cup, following their stunning comeback victory over Norway.
 
 England's women have never won a World Cup knock-out match and finally got the monkey off their back in dramatic style in Ottawa.
 
 After a goalless first half, the Last 16 tie burst into life in the second 45.
 
 Norway went in front on 54 minutes after Solveig Gulbrandsen's smart flicked header caught England napping at a corner.
 
 But, Mark Sampson's side were behind for just five minutes and levelled it up through captain Steph Houghton.
 
 Houghton rose well to meet Fara Williams' cross and headed back across goal leaving the Norway goalkeeper no chance.
 
 And the Three Lions completed the superb turn around with 15 minutes remaining.
 
 Jill Scott and Jodie Taylor linked up well before finding Lucy Bronze on the edge of the area.
 
 From there, the full-back let fly, despatching a fearsome drive into the top corner to set up a last eight meeting with Canada on Sunday.
 
 Canada booked their place earlier in the day after Josee Belanger's goal was enough to see off Switzerland.
