임상의 홀란드, 가장 큰 무대에서 빛을 발하다
엘링 홀란드는 뉴저지에서 열린 세네갈과의 월드컵 결승전에서 두 골을 터뜨리며 노르웨이의 32강 진출을 확정지었습니다. 맨체스터 시티 소속의 이 공격수는 대회 두 경기 만에 월드컵 역사상 노르웨이 선수 최다 득점(4골)의 두 배에 달하는 골을 기록했습니다. 홀란드는 첫 월드컵 출전을 만끽하고 있는 듯합니다.
Erling Haaland scored twice as Norway booked their place in the last 32 of the World Cup with victory over Senegal in New Jersey.
After just two games in the competition, the Manchester City striker has now scored twice as many goals (four) as any other Norway player in World Cup history.
Haaland is clearly enjoying his first World Cup.
Rather than being weighed down by the pressure of spearheading his country's attack, he is thriving.
His exploits for Manchester City in recent years mean he is already a superstar of the sport, but the World Cup remains the grandest stage of all and Haaland is doing all he can to make his mark.
The 25-year-old was quiet for much of the first half but showed his quality with a superb cushioned pass to tee up Odegaard, who should have scored.
Haaland then had the chance to show his captain how it is done in front of goal when he dispossessed Senegal keeper Edouard Mendy - but the striker hit the post with the goal at his mercy.
That was soon forgotten as he rifled in his first goal early in the second half, the inevitable conclusion of a swift Norway counter-attack.
Normal service had been resumed and another clinical finish, on the volley with his weaker foot, looked to have put the result beyond doubt and ultimately proved decisive.
By the end, the only surprise was that Haaland had not completed a first World Cup hat-trick. But with at least two more games to play, there is still plenty of time for that.
