Norway defeated Brazil 2-1 on Monday, advancing to the quarterfinals, thanks to two goals from Erling Haaland.
Haaland scored two late goals, while Norway goalkeeper Orjan Nyland made some excellent saves.
Norway reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup for the first time . Brazil's dream of winning the World Cup for the first time since 2002 remained unfulfilled this time too after the defeat. Brazil has won the World Cup a record 5 times .
Haaland scored both goals in the second half after a pass from Anders Sjølderup. He opened the scoring in the 79th minute with a powerful header and scored the second goal in the 90th minute .
With this, Haaland has reached his goal tally in the tournament to seven and is tied with Argentina's Lionel Messi and France's Kylian Mbappe on the list of Golden Boot winners for the most goals.
Neymar, who entered the field as a substitute in the tenth minute of injury time, scored a penalty, which was only a consolation for Brazil. In the first half, Bruno Gumirez's penalty was saved by Norway goalkeeper Niland. This was unfortunate for Brazil.
