Norway, strong and fueled by two late goals from Erling Haaland, managed to get rid of Brazil, beaten 2-1 on Sunday in the Round of 16 of the World Cup in East Rutherford, a suburb of New York.
The Seleção, which will therefore not claim its sixth star this year, missed a penalty early in the match when excellent Norwegian goalkeeper Orjan Håskjold Nyland saved Bruno Guimarães’ attempt (13th minute). He couldn’t stop a second penalty, which was scored too late in stoppage time by star player Neymar.
Norway will play in the first quarterfinal of its World Cup history against either Mexico or England.
