Now Everything Is A Bonus: Haaland Reflects On Norway's First FIFA WC Knockout Win
FIFA World Cup: After leading the way for the Norwegians to their first knockout victory in the FIFA World Cup, Erling Haaland was all smiles and said, 'Everything is a bonus", noting his side's first World Cup qualification in 28 years and moving past the group stage.
Haaland carried on his World Cup scoring streak with the late goal that secured a 2-1 win over Cote d'Ivoire and put his country into the last 16 of the FIFA World Cup for the first time since 1998.
“It’s history, it feels unbelievable,” said Haaland. "We managed to qualify for the first time in 28 years, we managed to go through the group stage and now we’ve managed to go through to the next round and meet Brazil in New York. It’s incredible, so now everything is a bonus. Now we can play with our shoulders down and just enjoy it because I don’t think we’ll ever have this feeling again.”
