Shafaqna English- Two late strikes from Erling Haaland propelled Norway to a stunning 2-1 victory over Brazil, the five-time World Cup winners, in Sunday’s(5 Jul 2026) last-16 clash, securing the Scandinavians their first-ever quarter-final berth.
A late penalty from Neymar was little more than a minor solace for Brazil, who also squandered an early spot-kick through Bruno Guimaraes and missed out on the quarter-finals for the first time since 1990.
