🚨 Jurgen Klopp on Sørloth’s wasted chance:
“This is exactly why it’s not always advisable to play with two strikers. Yes, it can work, and when it works it looks brilliant — but there are moments like this that show the risk.
Strikers, by nature, think about goals first. It’s instinct. When you have two of them, there is always that small competition in their minds — ‘I want to score, I want to be the one.’ It’s completely normal, I understand it, I was around strikers my whole life.
But in that situation, 2 against 1, it has to be a goal. This is something every team in the world trains every single day. If that’s a winger in that position, the first thought is usually the pass. That’s the difference.
And look, I also understand the other side — when you have someone like Haaland in your team, of course you want to work for him, you want to score yourself, you want to be part of it. That’s football, that’s emotion.
But chances like this, in a knockout game, you don’t joke with them. You simply cannot.
Imagine Norway go 2–0 up in that moment — the whole game changes. The confidence, the belief, the energy… it explodes. And suddenly England are in real trouble, maybe even questioning everything they planned.
These are the moments that decide big matches. Not tactics on the board — decisions in seconds on the pitch.”
nobody in the norway team passing to haaland in this match and the Only person who does always pass to haaland, is now on the opposite team… oh my haalingham…
