Haaland Double Secures 3-2 Nations League Win for Norway Over Denmark

Erling Haaland scored twice, including the decisive 74th-minute goal, as Norway defeated Denmark 3-2 in Nations League action.

Erling Haaland scored two goals to lead Norway to a 3-2 Nations League victory over Denmark on Thursday. Oscar Bobb opened the scoring early for the hosts before Haaland doubled the lead in the 18th minute. Although Mikkel Damsgaard and Rasmus Højlund (60') pulled Denmark level, Haaland secured the win in the 74th minute by converting a first-time shot following a short corner. Norway finished the match with 10 men after David Moller Wolfe received a second yellow card during stoppage time.

According to ESPN, the Manchester City striker has now recorded 64 goals and seven assists in 56 international appearances. Haaland has found the net in 15 of his last 16 competitive matches for his country, totaling 29 goals in that period. His only failure to score during that stretch occurred in a World Cup quarterfinal defeat against England. The forward previously scored seven times for Norway during the 2026 World Cup and has now registered multiple goals in eight of his last 10 competitive international outings.
