Did haalands fame and success cause tons of jealousy and envy among the norweigan players or what the fuck was going on with them during the last match
>>156704082could be, same thing happens with portugal
>>156704082Our attack is shit and we finally faced a team with decent defenders. Not even our excellent midfield could make anything happen in a situation like that.
>>156704082Sorloth just really wanted a goal because he still didn't had one
>>156704220 that was 100% goal if sorloth passed
>>156704256A winger is generally considered to be an attacking player anon...
>>156704082they should show Peter Pebbles defensive positioning on that play in youth academies
Players have highlightreel syndrome at this point. It's all they think about.
Our defence is good and made him panic, you can see his eyes fixed on the ball because he's worried about losing it and doesnt check his surroundings enough to recognize the pass
it was his chance to push his market value with a goal
>>156704180The Portuguese players have a point though, Ronaldo is shit.
>>156704082>Haaland sees the guy is not gonna pass no matter what>stop and just look at him make the worst play of the WCBrutal.
>>156704082He looks so done with the world
>>156704338C'mon now, Nigel. The man lifts his head for like 1 second straight and looks directly at Haaland before looking down again and choosing to go on his own. What's pathetic is not that, but everyone and their mom lynching him instead of addressing the real problem: Norway gave England full control of the game and thus was incapable of generating chances. And, Oh, surprise! : Haaland is not Baggio.
>>156704082This is a common problem of the World Cup, the players are all divas and they don't know each other well which leads to a lack of team spirit. In the past the patriotism made up for it but that also seems to be lacking. They want to get noticed and increase their valuation as opposed to making their nation or team mates proud.
>>156704813I doubt it was an ego play really as this was far from the only attack he squandered. So he's just kind of shit really.
>>156704813arg basically has the same team as last time and still forgot how to play "la nuestra"
>>156704875That's a different problem, Scaloni did a good job creating team spirit but the squad is all busted up and old.
>>156704082>during the last matchsorloth was ass in every match he played, norway's two goals against us came after he was subbed off
>>156705016Yup, also not great in his league games. I think a lot of people started huffing his farts due to doing decently in qualifiers, when we faced respected and strong teams like Israel, Estonia and Moldova.
>>156704277Yeah, but he should've passed, his angle was shit, Pickford would've saved it and Haaland is one of the best strikers in the world for a reason
>>156704300well that's definitely going in a highlight reel
>>156705144He would have fucked it up anyway.
>>156705144his angle for passing was also shithttps://www.vg.no/sport/i/Wv8e5K/misbrukte-mulighet-det-er-tungt>Sørloth explained how he saw the situation after the match:>"I take a touch and look up, and then I see that Stones is blocking that pass. So I take another touch, but it's a poor one. I wait for him to make a move instead of forcing him to commit," Sørloth said.>"The only thing I want to do in that situation is pass to Erling. But it feels like that pass isn't on, so I decide to take the shot," Sørloth told reporters after the match.>Sørloth's shot posed no real threat to Jordan Pickford or England.>Reporter: "How does it feel now?">"It's tough. These are the kinds of moments you wish you could have handled better. I know there will be new opportunities, but of course it's hard when it's on the biggest stage and we're fighting for a place in the World Cup semi-finals," he told VG.
>>156704813Harry Kane and Jude have been different
>>156704813NahHe did this exact same thing to Julian at least once each game they got fielded at the same time
Sorloth clearly angry that Haaland is such a better player
>>156704872He admitted it was ego
>>156705353Lying to protect his career. Much better to be seen as someone with a bit of an ego than a shit and weakmind player.
lots of ppl don't understand how hard it is to make that pass. i'm certain he wanted nothing else than to pass to haaland, but the defender prepared exactly for that. the right move is really to cut inside but he did it badly because he hesitated too long
Robben did this a million times in his career but nobody cared because he was good and often succeeded. This guy got over confident once and people make up shit to smear his character.
>>156705438Yes. The same goes for Son HeungminHes been making the same every matches but nobody in Korea dare to bitch him up in real life
>>156705419Do you ever play a football
Pretty selfish. What did they do with him?
>>156704082This happens like 10 times for City every seasonSavinho and Doku are the worst offenders
>>156705240>yeah kinda screwed the pooch a bit ngl>still, other matches late innitDunno, seems like a good lad. Real shame. People shit on him but its high pressure.
Think Norway has a shot in a game where everybody plays like men, but they had to deal with England flop spamming like bitches >inb4 it's part of the game/strategythat's why this sport is gay as hell
>>156705652no
>should I pass one of the worlds greatest strikers or should I attempt my sunday league dribble
>>156706082We didn't have a particularly large chance anyway. We just have one overhyped meme player.
>>156705766There's no way from his perspective to actually make that pass though. It's so tight it's impossible.
>>156706120>We just have one overhyped meme player.man quit the bullshit and appreciate that your oil station finally produced a good athlete
>>156704082yeshttps://xcancel.com/Shonen_4U/status/2076382814941958550
>>156706154We have several good players on our current squad, but I also think Haaland has been phoning it in for years now. That said, the English squad is still better overall.
>>156706154This is your overhyped meme player bro
>>156706229lil bro is a snack
>>156704082Sorloth got a hefty cheque from one of the opposite players
>>156704082This is actually really underrated defending from John Stones. He blocks the easy pass to Haaland with Sorloth's preferred left foot, which meant Sorloth would have had to attempt the pass with his weaker right foot or wait for a better opportunity. Stones causes Sorloth to panic, which gives the other England defenders enough time to get back and kill the chance.
>>156706446IMO if you are a professional football player at this level, there is no excuse for not being able to play a pass competently with both feet.
>>156704082It's typical white culture. Selfish and entitled subhumans.
>>156706601why are you racist?
>>156706607Eugenics
10 years ago I would have said that this was just a fool act by an egotistical man.In 2026? this is just some dumb fuck that wants to be famous on tiktokt.
I don't get it. Did beating Brazil give them all a big head? Brazil's team is currently pretty mid; I'd say we're Marrocos level. And even if we were good, Brazil never beat Norway. There was no reason for Norway to get full of themselves for beating us.
>>156706909You played very well with Japan
>>156706938Japan was afraid and played too defensively. Martinelli's goal was nice but Casemiro's was a stroke of luck. If Japan had played more aggressively they could have won.
>>156706205>7 goals in 5 games this WC>phoning it in?
>>156704813>This is a common problem of the World Cup, the players are all divasThis was Vinicius every time he touched the ball.
>>156704277And an attacking player should know when to pass, though you know that.
>>156705240I don't watch soccer and even I can see he had multiple ways to get the ball over. Like, nigga just put a lead pass behind the defender, like hard decelerate and put the pass over in front of the defender. Is a pass defended by one player and nothing else a difficult situation for a professional or is there something I'm missing?
>>156704813You’re right but I think Sorloth is genuinely kind of retarded and it’s not the first time he does that>grug nervous defender coming, grug can’t pass and must shoot
>>156704699Stones did a good job there though.
>>156706229He’s good but weak mind pecho frio. He needs to man the fuck up as well as all Swedes
>>156706446It's not like these players don't make as tight or even tighter passes in the midfield or even the backline all the fucking time. It was a very easy pass and everyone could see it but Sorloth.
>>156705766nah, this one is really tough the only way i can see him passing it to the orc is over the defender even then halal would the surrounded by then or the keeper making a run to catch it
>>156704082if Norway had anymore success than it did. They would still lose in the semis and then they'd all get replaced with ngubus anyway if not already so I can understand why they did it, dude was trying to get all this social media clout off the backs of people who are trying to line shots up for his ass while they do all the dirty work and dibble and run all match
>>156704082I think after beating Brazil they genuinely started believing they were an elite team when in reality they have a decent team with a very sharp spear point.It became more and more noticeable in extra time when it became clear England's players just had a lot more in the tank and the overall squad had more depth.
>>156704082What was Haaland's thought process right after that "attempt" to score
>>156709461He was genuinely seething for the rest of the match. It’s happened many times in man shitty too, he gets like that
>>156704082I'm really starting to think it was a tactical decision from their manager to try make goals without Haaland, because he knew he'd be guarded heavily. The players just went full retard with this, like mr Sorloth here. Even the first goal was in a situation where normally they'd pass for Haaland.
>>156705766did the other guy just slap his ass?
>>156704082He arguably had an even better pass on after the defenders got back, ignored it too.
>>156704082Sørlanus' father was a big player. And Jr. is played out of position (Striker) on the wing. Fucker should've subbed off instantly, he deliberately didn't look up, if only to keep Halaand from being rage tilted by that perfidy the rest of the match.
>>156705240>cutback, either side value>delayed, still 60:40 murder ball the keeper has to risk a Red forHe also failed the long distance 'chip' straightaway with the keeper too far our. It's a tessract of fuckups.
>>156705766Had to cut the angle in to pinch the central defenders off, still had late cutback option to service the far post— gay deliberate 'lack of vision' there too
>>156706645>tfMore like poogenics.
>>156704180There's a difference between prime Haaland stealing the spotlight of normal humans and geriatric Ronaldo overstaying his welcome in a team that could otherwise have pretty good chances..
