"Haaland became the first player to score five goals in a single game for Norway this century. Haaland delivered his own five-star display at Ullevaal Stadion, scoring a first-half hat-trick as well as setting up Felix Myhre for Norway's opening goal of the game. He then added two more strikes to his tally after the break, before teeing up substitute Thelo Aasgaard, who scored four times, for the encounter's final goal in the 91st minute."
"And Odegaard, who assisted two of Haaland's strikes as well as getting himself on the scoresheet, said there was no better feeling than having the Man City star in their ranks. "It's a dream to play with him. I know he timed the races perfectly," Odegaard said. "Then it's just a matter of hitting, and then it mostly goes into the goal when he's the one who gets it.""
Erling Haaland scored five goals and supplied an assist as Norway defeated Moldova 11-1 at Ullevaal Stadion. Haaland scored a first-half hat-trick, added two more goals after the break, and set up Norway's final goal in the 91st minute. The striker became the first Norwegian to score five in a game this century and now has 48 goals in 45 appearances. Haaland has scored in each of his last eight internationals, totaling 14 goals in those matches, and is the first European to net five in a World Cup qualifier since 1977. Martin Odegaard assisted twice and said playing with Haaland is a dream.
