Haaland Faces Injury Doubt Before Liverpool Match
Erling Haaland, the forward for Manchester City and Norway, is a doubt for the upcoming Premier League clash against Liverpool due to an injury sustained during Norway's 2-1 Nations League defeat to Portugal. Haaland limped off the pitch in the 67th minute, signaling to the bench before being substituted for Jørgen Strand Larsen.
The nature and severity of his injury remain unconfirmed. This injury is particularly concerning for Manchester City, as they prepare to face Liverpool on Sunday.
Haaland has scored seven goals this season, making his potential absence a significant issue for manager Enzo Maresca. In the match, Norway initially took the lead with a goal from Kristoffer Ajer, but Portugal equalized through João Cancelo and later secured victory with a goal from Gonçalo Ramos.
Portugal's win ensured their place in the Nations League quarter-finals, while Norway remains at the bottom of their group.
