Haaland's Bluster Won't Save Norway Against England's Depth Erling Haaland, Norway's young striker, has been making headlines with his confident statements about the pressure being on England ahead of their World Cup quarter final match.
However, such comments have a somewhat hollow ring to them. Norway's impressive run in this tournament is largely due to Haaland's individual brilliance.
His seven goals are an incredible feat, but it remains to be seen whether he can continue to shoulder his team's expectations on his own shoulders.
