Norway pulls off upset of Brazil to reach quarterfinals
Los Angeles Times
|July 06, 2026
Erling Haaland headed in the go-ahead goal in the 80th minute and scored again before the end of regulation time, carrying Norway into the World Cup quarterfinals for the first time with a 2-1 victory over Brazil on Sunday that showcased the towering striker on soccer's biggest stage.
After being a nonfactor for much of the afternoon and having limited touches, Haaland turned it on when it mattered most, getting the right side of his head on the ball after a perfect setup by Andreas Schjelderup, who entered at halftime. Schjelderup jumped on Haaland’s back to celebrate the 6-foot-5 striker scoring his sixth goal at the World Cup and did so again after assisting on his seventh, tying Argentina’s Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé of France for the most in the tournament.
Haaland extended his streak of scoring to 14 consecutive competitive matches internationally. He has 27 in that stretch and 62 in 54 with Norway.
