Brazil’s long wait to defeat a European nation in a FIFA World Cup knockout match goes on.
The Seleção entered the match hoping to end a streak that has lasted since 2002.
Instead, Erling Haaland scored twice in the closing stages to put Norway in control, before Neymar converted a stoppage-time penalty that came too late to change the outcome.
Norway claimed a famous 2–1 victory and advanced, while Brazil’s knockout struggles against European opposition continued.
Is it just an incredible statistical coincidence…
