[winger dribbles past 14 players who are all somehow holding swords, plays a perfect through ball] [midfielder runs through lava as multiple tigers (?) claw at his body, chips a perfect pass] [Erling Haaland mishits the ball and it trickles into an empty net] "You just can't stop Erling Haaland".

You can tell I’m a soccer ball-knower with an eye for up-and-coming talent because I wrote about Erling Haaland for The Ringer in May 2020:

This is good but nothing beats your deep analysis of penalty kicks.

It was so fun in 2018(?) or so when we first started hearing whispers about this giant norse teen who scored for fun, and he simply hasn't stopped since

Norway's Viking Row 🇳🇴 is obviously inspired by their star player, Erling Haaland. After a 28 yr hiatus from the WC, Norway found themselves a proper viking. He's 6.5". Eats 6,000 calories per day. Has 57 goals in 58 Champions League games & 60 goals in 53 games for Norway! & he's hilarious! 🤣👇🏼

So, OBVIOUSLY Brazil is just a gimme — Norway never loses to Brazil, that’s just a fact — so we’re probably facing England or Mexico in the quarters. Wild. Feel sorry for the Ivory Coast though, they played much better than us.
