by

Norway made a save against Cyprus and he can still hope! By Haaland to score two goals and reach the 56 this year, surpassing Kylian Mbappe and he being, after all, the top scorer of the season, the Scandinavians prevailed 3-1 in Oslo, achieving their first victory in the very difficult first group of their qualifiers Euro 2024. His team Stale Solbakken reached, thus, the four points after the same number of matches and does not give up the battle of qualification.

The home side were in control from the start and it wasn’t until 10′ that Melling saw the ball hit his post Cypriotized Swiss Mol. In the 12th minute, however, he could not do anything to Ola Solbakken’s diagonal left shot, which “wrote” the 1-0. Moll, however, had great interventions on shots by Berg (9′) and Haaland (32′), while with the help of the crossbar – the second for Norway – he stopped the effort of Oursnes in the 43′, in one phase, which a flag was raised, but the replay showed it was covered and therefore, if he scored, his goal would count.

It’s all over though quickly in the second half. As if he took it personally, in the 56th minute Haaland scored with a penalty, after Ioannou’s hand in the area and four minutes later o world’s top striker made it 3-0. The Norwegians continued to they excelbut they couldn’t even get a fourth goal, with the Cypriots scoring with Kastanos in the last phase of the match (90’+3′) the honorable goal for the final 3-1.
