Norway Vs Brazil | Haaland Says "A Big Party Whether We Win Or Lose" After Norway's Historic Leap

Erling Haaland scored twice as Norway stunned five-time champions Brazil 2-1 to reach their first-ever FIFA World Cup quarter-final, ending Brazil's campaign in their earliest exit since 1990. Speaking after the match, an emotional Haaland admitted he "never expected in a million years" that Norway would advance this far, having not qualified for the World Cup in 28 years. He said the team would "have a big party whether we lose or win from here" given how unexpected the run has been. Haaland also had generous words for Brazil, saying the five-time champions "deserve to be in the finals" and "deserve glory" as one of football's great footballing nations, reflecting on watching stars like Neymar and Vinicius Jr growing up.
