Norwegian national team and Manchester City striker Erling Haaland shared his thoughts on the participation of his national team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The Norwegian national team started the World Cup qualifying stage with four victories. When asked by a Time magazine journalist whether the USA could become world champions, Haaland responded with a question about which team, the USA or Norway, has a better chance of becoming champions.
Erling Haaland: "You can choose not to answer this question, but Norway has never won the World Cup. If we qualify for the World Cup, it would be like one of the major countries winning.
The sights in Oslo would be astonishing," he said. Haaland also added: "I don't want to be the person who says the USA will never be world champions.
But their chance of becoming champions is 1 percent, while Norway's is 0.5 percent." The Norwegian national team last participated in the World Cup in 1998.
