Norway vs Senegal

Norway secured back-to-back wins at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, edging past Senegal 3-2 in an entertaining Group I clash. Erling Haaland struck twice to take his tournament tally to four goals, moving him level with Kylian Mbappé in the race for the Golden Boot. The result followed Norway's emphatic 4-1 win over Iraq in their opener and puts them firmly in control of Group I alongside France, who also won on the same day. Senegal, who lost their opener to France, pushed hard and scored twice through a spirited second-half showing, but it was not enough to deny Haaland and Norway a second straight victory. Sadio Mané and his Senegal teammates now face a must-win finale against Iraq to keep their World Cup alive.
