Norway secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Ivory Coast on Tuesday at Dallas Stadium, setting up a confrontation with Brazil in the round of 16 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, APA reports.

Antonio Nusa opened the scoring in the 39th minute, giving Norway the lead. Amad Diallo equalized for the Elephants in the 74th minute, but Erling Haaland restored the lead just 12 minutes later, netting in the 86th minute to seal the win.

Despite Ivory Coast edging possession with 48% to Norway's 44%, it was the Scandinavians who proved more clinical in front of goal. Norway now turns its attention to what it promises to be an exciting clash against Brazil on July 8.
