Las dos caras del fútbol.
En un fondo, Inglaterra canta Wanderwall, su nuevo himno futbolístico.
En el otro, Noruega despide con honores a los suyos tras un Mundial histórico. La afición con más aura de 2026. Nunca olvidaremos su 'Ro!'.
Dear Norway fans,
Thank you & I’ll say it again… you have been, beyond any argument, the most extraordinary supporters at this entire tournament.
From a country of five and a half million people, you crossed oceans, packed out stadiums, dressed American streets in red and white and transformed every single fixture into a carnival of noise, pride and unshakeable joy.
Three decades away from football’s biggest stage, and yet you returned carrying no sense of entitlement: only pure, infectious energy.
Your team repaid every ounce of that devotion, reaching a first ever World Cup quarter-final in the nation’s history, smashing straight through the old ceiling of the last 16 that had stood since 1938 and 1998. a stunning knockout of Brazil to even get there (a nation Norway have somehow never lost to across World Cup history).
The Viking Row wasn’t just a celebration for your own players. It moved rivals. It captivated neutrals. It swept up the entire watching planet.
England brought the run to a close. But nothing can erase what unfolded here. The finest chapter Norwegian football has ever produced. Walk away with your heads held high.
Thank you, Norway. For the emotion. For the history you carved out. For the row we’ll be talking about for years to come. Unforgettable. 🇳🇴
They came into this World Cup as the dark horses.
