Erling Haaland’s second-half double saw Norway beat Senegal 3-2 at a rain-swept MetLife Stadium as Stale Solbakken’s side joined France in qualifying for the last 32 of the World Cup.
After both Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe had earlier scored twice for Argentina and France respectively, it was no surprise to see the Man City striker respond with his 58th and 59th goals for Norway in just his 52nd international, while the in-form marksman has now registered in his last 12 competitive appearances for his country.
In fact, the 25-year-old was disappointed he did not net a hat-trick in New York in a clash that some thought might not take place at all after fans were briefly cleared from the stadium amid heavy rain around four hours before kick-off as a flood watch was issued by the US National Weather Service in the area and nearby New York.
However, the predicted torrential rain during the match stayed away, allowing Norway to record their second victory of the tournament, more than they had managed in all their previous World Cups and they now face France on Friday to determine who wins Group I.
Senegal, meanwhile, are going to need to rack up the goals in their final contest with Iraq if they want to join Norway and France in the knockouts.
The key moments from New York…
43 – GOAL! Sub Pedersen opens scoring after mistakes by Koulibaly and Mendy
45 – POST! Haaland hits the post another another Mendy error
48 – GOAL! Haaland rifles home into roof of the net to become Norway’s all-time leading scorer at World Cups!
53 – GOAL! Ismaila Sarr pulls one back with an excellent finish after being set up by Mane’s neat flick on the edge of the box
58 – GOAL! Haaland’s close-range finish restores Norway’s two-goal cushion
90+3 – GOAL! Ismaila Sarr’s composed finish sets up a nervy finish in East Rutherford
What the result means…
