Erling Haaland has achieved a rare feat at the World Cup: the Norwegian striker has scored in each of his first three starts for his national team at the tournament.
Details: Haaland is the first player in 72 years to find the net in his first three starts at a World Cup.
This tournament is quickly becoming Haaland’s personal stage. The Norwegian isn’t just starting every match - he’s immediately proving himself as the team’s main attacking force.
This streak is especially impressive given the immense pressure surrounding the player. Haaland is expected to score in every game—and so far, he is living up to the hype.
Reminder: Earlier, Haaland extended his phenomenal streak for Norway, scoring in his 13th consecutive official international match.
