Is Nusa really Norwegian, though?

On one hand, he's got blonde hair. On the other hand…

Not many Norsemen named Antonio.

There aren't many Nigerians named Antonio, either, at least to the best of my knowledge.

(Nusa was born in Oslo to a Norwegian mother; his dad is Nigerian.)

Also - people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

We've still got guys on our team who have zero memories of ever living here (if they ever even did).

French literally had a revelation not far behind our revolution, how do you f*** up a revelation and walk away with no freedoms.

I think it all went downhill when they adopted the metric system.

Twas meant to be a joke, but I scuffed it.

Still, I thought it was more on target than Jonathan Tah.

You could put a Bluetooth symbol on the back of a Norway jersey, and I wouldn't know the difference.

I was thinking that this match hadn't lived up to its predecessors. Then I thought, it's only the 70th minute.

Deserved for playing in their skivvies. Who sold them on a uniform made of of a plain white t-shirt and white gym shorts? Turrible
People think I'm an idiot or something, because all I do is cut lawns for a living.

Haaland almost too lackadaisical on that goal. Goalkeeper almost got to that ball.

Haaland tapped that in so nonchalantly, I wasn't sure it went in!

Yokel's anthem reviews
Ivory Coast's anthem is a nice little tune, but doesn't have the stately quality of a truly great anthem.

Norway's anthem sounds like a hymn that no one in the congregation really wants to sing.

I give this matchup to Cote d'Ivoire!

As to the game, Haaland with a late decider. Norway 2-1.

Do I know soccer-ing, or do I know soccer-ing??

you know having 3 players defending the ball and none on Haaland strategy might need tweaking.

The pitfall of having a striker's selfish mentality.
