Norway vs. England: Erling Haaland Describes Chances to Win World Cup as ‘Really Low’
As a Premier League star for Man City, Haaland is very familiar with England’s team. With Norway as the underdog, Haaland is hoping England is feeling the pressure with a trip to the semifinals on the line.
Ahead of the clash against England, Haaland described Norway’s chances of winning the World Cup as “really low.”
“Really low, still,” Haaland noted, per Yahoo Sports. “I think there’s some clear favorites out there, England’s one of them. I think all of you [reporters] should put every single pressure on the English lads.
“… I think for me it’s super special, because I play in England and I was born in England, and you also play against teammates and everything. It’s a funny game and it’s going to be nice.”
Messi Leads Argentina Against Switzerland
For the second straight game, Argentina needed some late heroics to advance. Messi described himself as “very distressed” after missing another penalty kick against Egypt in the Round of 16.
“I was really angry about the penalty, very distressed about missing again,” Messi noted, per Yahoo Sports. “If I had scored the penalty at that moment, it would have changed the game. We were playing well.
“Aside from the penalty, we had clear chances. The goalkeeper made some incredible saves. Luckily, in the end, I got the chance. It’s something very special to be able to help this group after what had happened.”
