Brazil knocked out of World Cup, Norway storm into quarter-finals

Norway delivered a historic upset, beating five-time champions Brazil 2-1 in the World Cup Round of 16. Leading the charge was Erling Haaland, team's standout player and one of the best in the world. With a powerful header and a stunning long-range strike, he scored both goals and dominated the match.Norway goalkeeper Orlan Nyland produced a sensational display and saved a first-half penalty from Bruno Guimaraes before Haaland struck twice in the last 11 minutes to stun Brazil at MetLife Stadium. Neymar pulled a goal back deep into stoppage time with Brazil's second spot-kick of the match.

It was also the sixth straight tournament in which Brazil have been knocked out by an opponent from Europe. The last time they failed to reach the last 8 was 36 years ago, when they lost 1-0 to Argentina in the Round of 16. Carlo Ancelotti picked Gabriel Martinelli in his starting line-up, rewarding the Arsenal star for his stoppage-time winner against Japan in the Round of 32. He replaced the injured Lucas Paqueta. Meanwhile, Julian Ryerson returned to Norway's playing XI.The last time Brazil failed to reach at least the quarter-finals came 36 years ago, when they lost 1-0 to arch-rivals Argentina in last 16.
Haaland's brace took him level with Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé on seven goals for the tournament as Norway booked a showdown against either co-hosts Mexico or England in Miami on July 11.
