Erling Haaland’s Brace Sends Norway Into FIFA World Cup 2026 Knockout Stage
Erling Haaland scored twice as Norway defeated Senegal 3-2 in Group I to secure a place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32.
Norway took the lead through Marcus Holmgren Pedersen before Haaland doubled the advantage early in the second half after a brilliant assist from Martin Odegaard. Senegal fought back and made the contest tense, but Haaland’s second goal proved decisive. The Manchester City striker became the first player since Harry Kane in 2018 to score multiple goals in his first two World Cup matches.
Haaland now has four goals in the tournament and remains firmly in the Golden Boot race.
