Erling Haaland scored in the 86th minute to seal a 2-1 victory for Norway against Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) at the Dallas Stadium in Dallas as the Vikings sailed into the Round of 16 in the FIFA World Cup for the first time in their history.

Norway were pushed all the way by an excellent Côte d'Ivoire side that created some good chances in the second half of the match, but the Scandinavians held their nerve and emerged deserved winners.
