World Cup Shock: Haaland Sends Brazil Crashing Out

In one of the biggest upsets and most dramatic matches of the FIFA World Cup Round of 16, Norway stunned tournament favorites Brazil with a 2–1 victory to book a historic place in the quarterfinals, inspired by a brilliant performance from Erling Haaland.

Haaland once again showcased his world-class quality, scoring both goals for Norway and ending Brazil’s dream of winning a record-extending sixth World Cup title.

Brazil’s only goal came in the closing minutes when Neymar converted a penalty, but it was not enough to prevent the Seleção from suffering a surprising elimination.
