Round of 16: Côte d’Ivoire 1-2 Norway

With goals from Nusa and Haaland, Norway returned to the Round of 16 for the first time in 28 years, matching the best performance in the team’s history. Facing the fast and offensively strong “Elephant Legion,” Nusa gave Norway the lead in the 39th minute with a curling “moon-blade” strike. In the 74th minute, substitute Diallo for Côte d’Ivoire equalized. In the 86th minute, Haaland, on receiving a cross from a teammate, pushed it in with a “winning” finish to seal the result. At this World Cup, Haaland has already scored five goals. In the Round of 16, Norway will face Brazil.

Round of 16: Mexico-Ecuador

This “Americas Derby” is highly anticipated. In the group stage, Mexico won all three matches and conceded not a single goal. Along with France and Argentina, they became the only three teams to collect full marks of 9 points, with a solid back line and a well-balanced attack and defense. Meanwhile, Ecuador—the “Devil of the Highlands”—pulled off a comeback to narrowly knock out the “German War Machine,” earning themselves a reputation as a “dark horse.”

This will be the teams’ second meeting in World Cup history. In the 2002 Korea/Japan World Cup group stage, Mexico won 2:1. This time, the hosts are eager to keep the glory going, while Ecuador, skilled at high-altitude battles, is determined to seek “revenge.”
