   🇳🇴Norway 4–1 🇮🇶Iraq

   Clinical, and barely troubled — though Iraq made them earn the first half. Erling Haaland struck twice, in the twenty-ninth and forty-third, either side of Aymen Hussein's equaliser, before Leo Østigård put the result beyond doubt with Martin Odegaard's assist. Five of Norway's twelve shots hit the target and the expected goals settled at 2.53 to 0.77 — the work of a side that knew its quality and used it. The goalkeeper made the game without a save to register. This was control, restored quickly after the only wobble.

   🇳🇴Norway 3–2 🇸🇳Senegal

   Norway had less of the ball and still won a breathless one. Pedersen nudged them ahead before the break, and Erling Haaland did what he does — twice, either side of the hour, the second restoring the lead almost as soon as Senegal had halved it. They were outshot sixteen to thirteen and saw barely two-fifths of possession, yet seven efforts on target to four was the sharper return. Ismaila Sarr's late strike made the finish anxious but came too late. Norway take the points; Haaland takes the headlines.

   🇳🇴Norway 1–4 🇫🇷France

   The cruelty of this scoreline is that Norway were, by one honest measure, the better side. They generated the larger expected-goals total, 1.69 to 1.31, and had the chances to make a real game of it — but where France were merciless, Norway were wasteful. Ousmane Dembele's first-half hat-trick punished every loose moment, Thore Aasgaard's strike offered hope, and then Jorgen Larsen's missed penalty just after the break drained it away. Desire Doue's stoppage-time fourth was the final indignity. The performance says Norway can play. The scoreboard, and a missed spot-kick, say they must be ruthless too.

   🇳🇴Norway 2–1 🇨🇮Ivory Coast

   Norway rode the storm and let their headliners settle it. Martin Ødegaard threaded the pass for Antonio Nusa's opener, and when Amad Diallo dragged Ivory Coast level, it was Erling Haaland who had the final word on eighty-six. They survived fourteen corners and a nervy spell, but the numbers back the result: 2.02 expected goals to 1.36, the sharper edge in a tight tie. Ødegaard and Haaland are why Norway are ranked ninth, and why they are into the last sixteen.

   Full time · The Report Haaland twice, Brazil felled

   🇳🇴Norway 2–1 🇧🇷Brazil

   Norway barely saw the ball and did not need to. Erling Haaland struck twice — on eighty minutes and again at the death — with Andreas Schjelderup supplying both. Brazil created far the better chances and even missed a first-half penalty, but Haaland punished every ounce of their waste. Neymar's stoppage-time spot-kick was only a consolation. Brazil are out; Norway, unfancied and clinical, march into the quarter-finals. Knockout football does not grade on chances created.
