Haaland Shines with Two Goals in Norway's 3-2 Win
In their opening UEFA Nations League match, Norway triumphed over Denmark with a score of 3-2, thanks to a brace from Erling Haaland, the Manchester City striker. Haaland's performance marked his first international appearance since Norway's quarter-final exit at the World Cup against England, where he had scored seven goals.
The match took place in Oslo, where Fulham forward Oscar Bobb opened the scoring by curling a shot into the far corner after receiving a pass from Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard. Brentford midfielder Mikkel Damsgaard then added a stunning free-kick goal, bringing the total to three goals within the first 11 minutes.
Denmark's Rasmus Hojlund equalized in the second half, but Haaland secured the win for Norway with his second goal, a powerful finish from a well-executed corner, in the 74th minute.
