Rooney, Hart and Richards row Hudson after Norway World Cup bet

What's new: The BBC pundits carried out Rooney's on-air pledge in New York after Norway's 2-1 upset of Brazil.

Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart and Micah Richards took to the Hudson River in New York after Rooney followed through on a World Cup promise tied to Norway's run. Rooney had vowed to row the River Mersey if Norway beat Brazil in the round of 16. Norway then stunned the five-time champions 2-1, prompting Rooney to complete the challenge in the United States alongside his fellow BBC Sport pundits. The stunt grew out of Norway fans' Viking-themed rowing celebration and drew attention from striker Erling Haaland, who had urged Rooney to do it. The trio are due back on air with Gabby Logan for Sunday's World Cup final.
