FIFA WC: ‘This Has Changed Me As A Person,' Says Haaland Reflecting On Maiden World Cup Campaign
FIFA World Cup: Norway striker Erling Haaland said his first FIFA World Cup experience has 'changed him as a person' as the 25-year-old reflected with immense pride on his country’s historic campaign after a heartbreaking 2-1 extra-time defeat to England in the quarter-finals.
Haaland, who had terrorised opposition defences with seven goals in four consecutive matches against Iraq, Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire and Brazil, was kept quiet by England as Norway’s best-ever World Cup campaign ended in Miami on Saturday.
“These things are surreal; I think this has changed me as a person, I think my profile has grown a bit, let’s put it that way. It’s hard to even process it all right now when I look back at the games, but it’s incredibly special to be part of an event like this, something I used to watch from the sidelines, and now I’m living it first-hand,” Haaland said after the match.
