Norway clinched a place in the knockout stage of the tournament with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Senegal. Manchester City forward Erling Haaland scored twice, while substitute Marcus Pedersen also found the net for Norway. Senegal's Ismaila Sarr scored both goals for his team.

Haaland's heroics

Haaland was the star of the show for Norway, scoring a brace to take his tally to four goals in two matches. His first goal came just before halftime, doubling Norway's lead after Pedersen had opened the scoring. His second goal in the second half proved decisive as Senegal tried to mount a comeback.

Senegal fight back

Senegal showed resilience and scored twice through Ismaila Sarr to make the final scoreline more respectable. However, it was not enough to overcome Norway's early advantage. Senegal now must defeat Iraq in their final group match to have any chance of advancing.

Norway's impressive run

This was Norway's second consecutive win in the tournament, having previously defeated France. They have now won their last 18 matches, losing only once in that period. Their next match is against France for the top spot in the group.

Senegal's uphill task

Senegal faces an uphill task to progress further in the tournament. They have yet to earn any points and must now defeat Iraq in their final group match. Even then, their goal difference may count against them if other results do not go their way.
