FIFA WC: Norway Coach Doesn't Regard Brazil As 'big Favourites'
World Cup Round: Norway coach Stale Solbakken has reminded his players against being overwhelmed by the occasion of playing against five-time champion Brazil in the World Cup Round of 16 game.
"We need to play the match, not the circumstances," he told reporters in New Jersey on Saturday. "We need to make sure that we don't play according to the occasion, but that we simply play the match.
