Erling Haaland insists England remain clear favourites ahead of Norway's World Cup quarter-final, despite his side's impressive run. The Manchester City striker is keeping expectations in check while embracing the challenge of facing familiar club team-mates for a place in the semi-finals.

Norway’s classic red returns with a modern twist for 2026 World Cup kits

Erling Haaland has carried the hopes of a nation upon Norway's return to football's biggest stage after a 28-year absence, but while his goals have been vital to their cause, the Manchester City hitman hasn't been shouldering that burden alone. The Scandinavians are back at the World Cup having built a solid team unit that isn't solely reliant on its star striker, and the supporting cast have been showing what they can do in North America.

John Arne Riise has backed Erling Haaland to inspire Norway to victory over England in the World Cup quarter-finals, describing the Manchester City star as the world's best striker. The former Liverpool defender also believes the Drillos can dream of lifting the trophy if they overcome Thomas Tuchel's side.
