Haaland double sends Norway past Brazil in World Cup last 16
Norway eliminated Brazil from the World Cup Round of 16 with a 2-1 win at MetLife Stadium, a scoreline built on two late Erling Haaland goals before Neymar's stoppage-time penalty proved merely a consolation. The match was goalless at half-time, with the contest wide open heading into the closing stages.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Haaland broke the deadlock in the 79th minute, converting a chance created by Andreas Schjelderup, and the same combination doubled Norway's lead in the 90th minute as Schjelderup teed up his second assist of the night. Brazil pulled one back deep into added time when Neymar scored from the spot in the tenth minute of stoppage, but there was no route back to parity before the final whistle.
Brazil dominated territory and volume, holding 67 percent of possession and registering 14 shots to Norway's nine, yet it was Solbakken's side who made their moments count. Ancelotti's team pushed numbers forward in search of an equaliser once Haaland's second went in, but Norway held out to progress to the next round.
Haaland scored twice in the final eleven minutes to turn the tie in Norway's favour, both goals arriving from Schjelderup service, and he finished with a match rating of 9.0.
Despite seeing only 33 percent of possession, Norway outshot Brazil's expected goals tally of 0.73 with a total of 1.93, reflecting how clinically they used their limited chances.

What the press said
🚨🚨 NORWAY MAKE HISTORY AS HAALAND SHOW ELIMINATE BRAZIL FROM THE WORLD CUP! 💥🇳🇴 Brazil go home at round of 16. ❌🇧🇷 Who’s been your Man of the Match? https://t.co/yVNQ9Perq1
A very average Brazil side deservedly knocked out - but what an achievement for Norway in their first World Cup since 1998. Got a chance of beating anyone with Haaland up top and Nyland producing heroics at the other end.
Norway knock Brazil out the World Cup after a 2-1 victory. Erling Haaland with both goals. Bruno Guimarães missed a penalty for Brazil at 0-0. Neymar then scored a late penalty in what is expected to be his last World Cup appearance. Norway to face England or Mexico in Miami.🇳🇴
