Norway had several chances of qualifying for the Euros but they never lived up to their expectations. Haaland is the best striker in the world and Odegaard is a top midfielder and captain, for both the national team and one of the best teams in the Premier League. Norway is still managing to feed Haaland, with an insane 27 goals. What gives, terrible tactics or synergy issues?

    Ødegaard hasn’t really been one of the “best players in the world” since February. And Haaland isn’t a creator, he’s a scorer. If no one creates for him, he can’t score.

    Combine that with a error prone defence, and you’re knocked out.
