Norway advanced to the World Cup last-32 after defeating Senegal 3-2, fueled by a two-goal performance from Erling Haaland. Haaland now has four goals in the tournament, trailing only Lionel Messi’s record-breaking total. Marcus Holmgren Pedersen opened the scoring for Norway, with Haaland extending the lead twice, despite two goals from Senegal’s Ismaila Sarr. This victory marks Norway’s first back-to-back World Cup wins and secures their place in the knockout rounds with a game remaining. Norway will next face France in a crucial match to determine the group’s top spot. Senegal must defeat Iraq in their final game to avoid elimination from the tournament. Haaland’s performance further solidifies his status as a prolific international goalscorer, bringing his total to 59 goals in 52 appearances.
