In the Nations League on Sunday, Austria defeated Norway 5-1, giving Erling Haaland a nightmare performance for his country.
The Manchester City player lost control eight times and could not keep a single shot on goal as the Norwegians were humiliated. Haaland completed just one crucial pass during the game with a passing accuracy of just 59%. He apologized on social media for the performance and stated that Norway will try to get six points during the international break in November.
The striker made history just a few days ago when he became the highest goal scorer in Norway’s history with his brace in the team’s 3-0 victory over Slovenia. Currently, he has just 37 international appearances under his belt with 34 strikes.
The 24-year-old forward’s performance for his country has been called into question following a dismal showing against Austria, but at the club level, he is still captivating. In just seven games this season, he has already scored 10 Premier League goals for City, including two hat-tricks.
The City player will be back in action for Pep Guardiola’s team on Sunday when they play a crucial Premier League match against Wolves.
