Bellingham scored twice, either side of extra time, as England overcame a first-half Andreas Schjelderup goal to win 2-1 in Miami and book a semi-final against the winner of Argentina and Switzerland. Speaking to BBC Sport, he pushed back on the idea the performance had fallen short.
"It was an England masterclass in a different way, not one of them where we pop the ball and have a million chances, but it was a masterclass with fight and spirit. I'm so proud of the team, what we managed to produce. I know people will say we didn't play the best, but people don't understand how difficult those kind of games are," he said.
"In Miami the heat was unbelievable, the humidity, by the end we were dead. Credit to the lads they left everything out there, we will have to find it again to go for Switzerland or Argentina.
"I always think what changes whether you are 1-0 or 2-0 down, you always still want to score the next goal. So I'm calm among the emotions and things that go through my head. I trust my ability, but more so I trust the ability of my team-mates and the work and effort they put in.
"I'm enjoying my football, I'm blessed to be in the position to help my country win football games. That's all I can say. I don't care if it's the best or whatever, I don't care, as long as we keep winning games that's all that matters.
"We can be proud of this achievement, see who we are playing by the time we land, then tomorrow we go again to prepare for that one."
Speaking separately to ITV, Bellingham was asked what had got England over the line against a resilient Norway side.
"Character, perseverance even when things weren't working, we found a way to win the game again. Whether its in 90, 120 minutes, we'll give everything we've got. You saw it then - whoever was ready to come on came on and smashes it, I'm so proud of this team again, in a World Cup semi-final," he said.
"It's a victory for everyone. The whole country wins, everyone who is behind us, all the players and staff. Credit to everyone, it's a huge shift for everyone."
Reflecting on his winning goal, which came after Morgan Rogers' effort was parried into his path, Bellingham credited his team-mate for the impact he made after coming on.
"It's an important goal, it's put us through to the semis it's right up there.
"I told him [Morgan Rogers] to keep going, I knew he was going to make an impact. I've scored loads of those types of goal, the goalkeeper had a worldy but was unlucky to be fair the way it popped up but I was lucky to be there to put it in," he said.
Several of England's squad were playing in their first major tournament, and Bellingham praised how they had handled the pressure of a World Cup quarter-final.
"Warriors, they didn't look like they were new to it. And whoever came on, top level," he said.
"You don't know the mentality and how much heart they have until situations like that."
