England defender Dan Burn believes the team must significantly improve on their Mexico performance to overcome Norway in their World Cup quarter-final this weekend, a challenge he relishes, particularly the prospect of keeping Erling Haaland quiet.
A place in the semi-finals is on offer in the Miami heat, as Thomas Tuchel's men face the "Scandinavian surprise package," buoyed by their recent 2-1 victory against Brazil.
England's previous game saw the Three Lions overcome hostility, altitude, and Jarell Quansah's red card to secure a 3-2 victory over Mexico at the Estadio Azteca.
Burn played a key role off the bench, helping Tuchel's 10 men batten down the hatches.
However, the towering defender knows far more is required if they are to avoid an "agonising quarter-final exit" to Norway.
