Erling Haaland on Ørjan Nyland’s performance against Brazil:
🗣️ “People will talk about my goal, but last night belonged to Ørjan Nyland. Without his unbelievable saves, we’re not celebrating this victory. He was the reason we kept believing until the final whistle.
Every time Brazil came forward, he answered with another incredible save. Last night he gave everything for this badge, for this team and for every single Norwegian dreaming of this moment.
As a striker, scoring goals is always special, but my goal means nothing without the man behind us producing miracle after miracle. Last night, Ørjan carried us when we needed him the most.
I couldn’t be prouder of him. He deserves every headline, every standing ovation and every bit of praise because performances like that define World Cup history.
To every Norway fan celebrating today, never forget what Ørjan Nyland did last night. My goal may be remembered, but his courage, heart and unbelievable saves are what truly sent us through.”
