Haaland keeps exploding, and Norway pull off the biggest upset with a 2-1 win

The World Cup has never lacked dark horses, and the biggest dark horse of this tournament is undoubtedly Norway. If beating Brazil earlier was just the beginning, then against England, they still have a chance to keep creating miracles.

This Norway side is no longer the team of the past that relied on one-man attacks. Haaland is undoubtedly dazzling, but the organization from Ødegaard, the breakthroughs by Nusa and other players, and the strong overall team coordination are also worth paying attention to. Many pre-match analyses have pointed out that Norway is not only about Haaland; it’s a highly cohesive team.

England may have a star-studded lineup, but they also face greater pressure. As a traditional powerhouse, they carry the expectation of winning the title. Once the match turns tense and stays locked, the psychological burden could end up affecting their performance instead.

Norway’s biggest strength is exploiting rapid transitions. Haaland only needs one successful sprint to be able to change the course of the match. If Ødegaard can control the tempo in midfield, England’s back line may not be able to fully contain Haaland.

I think there’s a real possibility that this match could produce an upset, and that Norway will seize limited opportunities to land a decisive blow.

Prediction: Norway defeat England 2-1.
