Norway’s Erling Haaland scored two late goals to knock out Brazil from the World Cup, sending the five-time champions home in the Round of 16. The first goal came in the 79th minute, and the second was scored right at the end of normal time. Brazil scored a penalty in the final minute, making the final score 2-1.
Game Recap
Norway seemed to leap out to a lead in the first few minutes with a goal by Patrick Berg, but it was quickly ruled offside. The crowd was incensed after Matheus Cunha was taken down by Kristoffer Ajer with no penalty called. The play was sent to VAR and the penalty awarded, but the Brazilians in the stands and in the press box were only mostly placated by this development.
