Erling Haaland scored the winning goal in the 86th minute to lead Norway to a 2-1 victory over Ivory Coast in a World Cup knockout match held in Arlington, Texas. This marks Norway's first-ever win in a World Cup knockout game, advancing them to the round of 16.

Earlier in the match, Antonio Nusa opened the scoring for Norway with a curling kick. Ivory Coast's Arnard Diallo equalized in the 74th minute with a left-footed shot inside the penalty box. The decisive moment came when Patrick Berg, under pressure from three defenders, passed to a wide-open Haaland who netted his fifth goal in three games at this year's tournament.

Norway is competing in its fourth World Cup and its first since 1998, when the team famously secured a 2-1 comeback win over then-reigning champion Brazil by scoring in the 83rd and 89th minutes of the group stage finale. The upcoming round of 16 match will see Norway face five-time champion Brazil on Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

The match in Texas comes 28 years after what many consider the greatest win ever for the Norwegians against Brazil.
