After a brief Iraqi equalizer, Norway surged back with Leo Ostigard’s header and an own goal, sealing a statement win in their first World Cup since 1998. Haaland’s calm confidence in training foreshadowed his matchday brilliance, while Iraq, making their second-ever World Cup appearance, battled fiercely with passionate fans cheering them on. This victory sets Norway on fire, with Haaland proving he’s ready to carry the nation’s hopes on the global stage.
