Dude I'm not even Norwegian, just a fan of the team, and I facepalmed myself so hard my face went to the other side. Kidding aside, watching that play several times and for some reason, I can't help myself but be slightly angered and frustrated by Sorloth's decision not to pass to Halaand. I get the desire to score a goal, but in situations like this its really bigger than that. I can't imagine how a lot of people in Norway feel right now.
Tibo (probably) just gave everyone Fable permanently, because now they have to keep it in the sub in order to compete with 5.6 Sol.
Opus is no longer good enough. Especially with Grok now in the arena.
Love it.
¡ESTA IMAGEN NOS ROMPIÓ EL CORAZÓN! 💔🇳🇴
Tras el silbatazo final de la eliminación de Noruega en la Copa del Mundo, Orjan Nyland no pudo contener las lágrimas. El arquero estaba completamente desconsolado y se culpaba por el error que terminó en el gol de la victoria de Inglaterra.
Muchos recordarán únicamente esa jugada. Pero el fútbol no puede reducirse a un solo instante.
Durante todo el Mundial, Nyland fue uno de los grandes responsables de que Noruega alcanzara, por primera vez en su historia, unos Cuartos de Final. Fue figura en varias noches inolvidables y hasta le atajó un penal a Brasil para mantener vivo el sueño de todo un país.
Por eso dicen que ser arquero es la posición más cruel del fútbol: puedes salvar a tu equipo una y otra vez, pero un solo error es suficiente para que muchos olviden todo lo demás.
No hay peor sensación que sentirte responsable de la derrota cuando lo diste absolutamente todo.
Hoy no importa la bandera que defiendas. Todos estamos con Orjan Nyland.
TIENES NUESTRO RESPETO, NYLAND. 👏❤️
I love England, I love Norway. But I've always rooted for underdogs especially for those as likable as this Norwegian WC team. England has a strong team and they will have many more WC wins, I wish Norway had its first. Good game to both teams and congrats England. To Norway, you may have lost your chance but you won our hearts and support.
To FIFA referees - for the love of God please don't tell me you will be taking after NBA refs. Heavens, please no.
🚨🗣️New: Zlatan Ibrahimovic on England’s equalizer through Bellingham against Norway should not have stood:
“I don’t care if it’s the 1st minute or the 90th minute. The laws are the laws. If the ball hits a camera cable and the trajectory changes, that is outside interference. The referee is supposed to stop play immediately.”
“People keep talking about Bellingham’s finish. Fine. It was a good finish. But the question is: should the attack have even continued? According to the rules, no.”
“Football cannot become a game where we ignore the law because the goal looks spectacular. If Norway scored the same goal against England, there would be outrage everywhere.”
“You cannot tell players to respect the Laws of the Game and then ignore them when it’s convenient. If the ball was affected by the cable, the correct restart is a dropped ball. No attack. No equalizer. No debate.”
