Erling Haaland Makes Eye-Catching Claim About Italy Star After Clashing on Pitch

Haaland scored twice as Norway won all eight matches to qualify for the World Cup, reacting to Mancini's repeated provocations that sparked a heated exchange.

  • In Italy, Norway beat the Azzurri 4-1, completing a perfect qualifying campaign by winning all eight matches.
  • After repeated provocation from Gianluca Mancini, Italy defender, who repeatedly grabbed Erling Haaland's posterior, Manchester City forward Haaland exchanged heated words with him on the pitch.
  • The decisive two-minute scoring burst saw Erling Haaland find the net twice to seal victory after the match was level at 1-1 with a quarter remaining against Italy national team.
  • The result guarantees a World Cup return for Norway, ensuring their first appearance since 1998 as only an extremely unlikely nine-goal swing could have prevented qualification.
  • After the match Erling Haaland said he was 'a little fired up' and called the 4-1 win `It's probably the sickest result`, adding `Thank you so much for the motivation, let's f****** have it`.
