FIFA World Cup: Norway celebrated their qualification for the round of 32 on their return to the FIFA World Cup after 28 years with the team and the fans both performing the traditional Viking row and chants at the New Jersey Stadium.

Erling Haaland was once again among the goals as Norway ensured progression to the Round of 32 at the FIFA World Cup 2026 with a 3-2 win over Senegal. The prolific marksman made it four goals in two World Cup games and an astonishing 59 in 52 for his country, with Marcus Holmgren Pedersen also on the scoresheet for Norway.

Following a high-stakes match that guaranteed their qualification into the Round of 32, the Norwegian players and staff dropped to their knees on the pitch, leading thousands of supporters in a massive, perfectly synchronised "Viking row" celebration.
