- Norway – Northern Ireland, at 8:45 p.m. Wednesday
ULLEVAAL (Dagbladet): Erling Braut Haaland (20) and Norway prepare for Wednesday’s Nations League game against Northern Ireland.
Haaland scored a hat trick against Romania on Sunday, which once again sent him straight into the headlines. Also in Spain, the sensational forward is today front page news.
– Haaland if Mbappé does not come, writes Marca, which is the largest newspaper in Spain.

Avisa suggests that Paris Saint-Germain player Kylian Mbappé (21) is the club’s first choice, but that alarms sound when Haaland scores goals.
According to the newspaper, the rapid development has surprised the big club, which has reportedly had the Norwegian on the radar since the Molde era.
– Erling Haaland continues to impress everyone. Your job is to score goals. The truth is that he repeats this every time he goes out on the green grass. It has placed him in the center of attention of all clubs looking for a number nine (forward), with Real Madrid in the driver’s seat, the newspaper writes.
– He is the only player who is able to outshine Kylian Mbappé. They share star status in Football Europe. The number of goals – he already has eleven this season with Borussia Dortmund and Norway – is once again sounding the alarms at Real Madrid.
The club is said to have followed Haaland for a couple of years, but has been shocked.
-The truth is that development has gone faster than expected, including those from Madrid, he says.
Draw attention in Madrid
The club led by Zinédine Zidane leads the series in Spain, but has only scored six goals in four games.
– Karim Benzema needs a player who can be his partner and an alternative for the future. Neither Luka Jovic nor Mariano Mejia trust the coach. This reinforces the Haaland name, Storavisa reports.
The 20-year-old has a contract with Borussia Dortmund until the summer of 2024. An image that the Norwegian Football Association shared on social media after Romania’s match made headlines in Spain.
The picture shows Martin Ødegaard resting his legs on Haaland’s lap, after two goal passes and three goals, respectively. According to Marca, the fans hope that Ødegaard can attract the compatriot to the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
When Real Madrid decides for the first time, the club is like a Spaniard in love who enters with skin and hair. When Ødegaard was picked up from Strømsgodset in 2015, a private plane landed at Rygge Airport on the outskirts of Moss. Ødegaard, then 15 years old, had no doubt that they were looking for him.
The king of the castle in the air
Haaland’s hat trick against Romania on Sunday has traveled across Europe. Tomorrow, Northern Ireland awaits Ullevaal.
“His results are incredible,” Sunderland right-back Conor McLaughlin told Northern Ireland newspapers today. He was not on the field when Norway beat Northern Ireland 5-1 in Belfast in September.
But from the bench he pointed out:
– What surprised me was how ruthless he was. He’s probably one of the fastest forwards I’ve seen, says the Sunderland player, who places the Norwegian in class with Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski.

– It will not go for less than 100 million pounds (1.2 billion crowns). That’s the price you have to pay for such a player today, Northern Ireland coach Ian Baraclough told Dagbladet last month.
In that case, Real Madrid will have to rummage in their pockets.
