Just another reason to route Norway for the World Cup.
Norway's manager is Ståle Solbakken, who survived a massive heart attack on March 13, 2001, while playing for FC Copenhagen. His heart stopped for seven minutes, and he was clinically dead before doctors resuscitated him.
The terrifying medical incident forced him to retire from professional playing at age 33, but he later transitioned into a highly successful managerial career. He led the Norwegian national team to a historic appearance and deep run in the World Cup, bringing his emotional personal journey full circle.
Did you see the emotional viral moment where Solbakken celebrated his team's victory by running into the stands to hug his wife, or would you like to know more about Norway's current run in the tournament?
A huge thank you to @jmcginn7 for the inspirational message you sent to our school.
We were beyond excited to hear from you. Your words about following your dreams and never giving up were a wonderful source of motivation for us.
We’re all behind you! Come on Scotland!🏴 ⚽️💙
I was at the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh for the game and at the full time whistle we all walked to Tynecastle to welcome home our team.
The Hearts fans showed their class in defeat and were a credit to our club and our city.
This is only the beginning ♥️

There is about to be:
A First Minister of the north of Ireland that aspires to a united Ireland 🇮🇪
A First Minister of Scotland that aspires to Scottish independence 🏴
A First Minister of Wales that aspires to Welsh independence🏴
…for the first time EVER.
@OlafSNP My sentiments exactly!
I’m now in my seventies and have voted SNP in every election. As a Scot, I always thought that I would see an independent Scotland in my lifetime. If it’s not to be, I hope that my children and grandchildren do!
Tomorrow, I'll be voting for my grandchildren's future, not their grandparents past.
In all of my 60 years, Westminster has not, and will never prioritise Scotland. Devolution means nothing, and Independence IS the only way to actually change or reform Scotland for the better.
“This is destroying me.”
Hearts fan Martin Geissler is a bag of nerves!
