Norway defeated Brazil 2-1 in a crucial match of the last 16 of the FIFA World Cup. Erling Haaland scored a double for the Vikings. As a result, the five-time world champions were eliminated from the last 16 of the World Cup after 36 years. In addition, another failed campaign of ‘Mission Hexa’, the dream of winning the sixth World Cup for Sele\u00e7\u00e3o, came to an end. The two teams faced each other in New Jersey, USA, at 2 am Bangladesh time yesterday, Sunday (July 5).
\nBrazil was slightly ahead in possession of the ball from the beginning of the match. They also had opportunities. Bruno Guimaraes had the opportunity to give Sele\u00e7\u00e3o the lead. But the midfielder failed to score from the penalty spot in the 14th minute of the match. In the 40th minute, goalkeeper Orian Niland saved Norway once again. Vinnie’s ball went to Odegaard in the box. However, Vinnie’s great shot was blocked by Niland. Sele\u00e7\u00e3o goalkeeper Alisson Becker also saved Brazil by stopping a Norwegian attack shortly before half-time. In the end, the two teams went into the break with a goalless draw.
\nAfter the break, both teams increased their attacks. However, the goal difference was not clear. Neymar Jr. entered the field in the 70th minute of the match. Carlo Ancelotti made two changes just before the second half hydration break. Neymar and Danilo came on for Ryan and Gabriel Martinelli.
\nNorway also made two changes. Oscar Bob and Andreas Schelderup came on for Alexander Sarlath and Antonio Nusa. After the second half hydration break, Erling Haaland was seen returning to his desired form. The Masiti star gave Norway the lead in the 79th minute of the match with a magnificent header.
\nHaaland scored again, evading the Sele\u00e7\u00e3o defense 1 minute before the scheduled time. Brazil tried to return to the match, but the opponent’s defense broke it. Neymar scored from the penalty spot won by Brazil in extra time, which only slightly reduced the margin of defeat. In the end, Norway left the field with a 2-1 victory. In the last eight, they will face the winner of the Mexico-England match. The match will be held next Saturday (July 11) at 3 am.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
