Discover Erling Haaland's viral World Cup souvenir by exploring how the Norway football star boosted a Dallas Western store's international sales, proving that personal joy and quirky taxidermy can outshine a tough quarterfinal loss.

For the first time since 1998, Norway had returned to football's biggest stage. They leave North America with more than a quarter-final appearance. They leave having transformed the way a nation sees its football team.

From the stunning goals of Erling Haaland to the famous rowing celebration patented by the fans, Norway made their mark on the tournament as they returned to the World Cup finals for the first time since Solbakken was a player in the squad in 1998.

There were long spells in Dallas yesterday when Erling Haaland appeared to be little more than a spectator in Norway’s 2-1 Round of 32 win over Ivory Coast.

Norway have lost just one of their past 18 matches and will take on 2022 runners-up France in Boston on Friday to determine the winners of Group I.

Haaland, who scored 16 times in eight qualifying games, double the tally of anyone else in Europe, looks to be back in top form after being given a bit of rest by Manchester City at the end of the English Premier League season and by Norway in the run-up to the World Cup, Solbakken said.

Martin Odegaard looks likely to miss Arsenal's Premier League matches against Tottenham and Manchester City as well as the start of the Champions League after injuring his ankle, according to Norway's team doctor.
