Norway pulled off a stunning upset at MetLife Stadium, eliminating Brazil from the World Cup with a 2-1 victory in the Round of 16. Erling Haaland proved decisive, scoring twice—once in the 79th minute and again in the 90th—to secure Norway's passage. Brazil dominated possession at 34 percent but couldn't convert their chances, managing only four shots on goal compared to Norway's five. Neymar converted a late penalty in stoppage time, but it proved too little too late. Haaland earned player of the match honors with a 9.2 rating, orchestrating Norway's counterattacking game despite being outshot. The loss sends Brazil home from the tournament, while Norway advances from Group C to continue their World Cup campaign after qualifying from their group.
