Norway beat Georgia 2-1, which is moving away from the continental tournament
Norway achieved a forced victory once morest Georgia with goals from Erling Haaland and Martin Ødegaard in a great first half for Nusa, the victory maintains some hope of chasing Spain or Scotland in the fight for the two places that qualify for the next Euro Cup.

The Nordic team was obliged to win. And Ståle Solbakken opted for an offensive eleven with the young Nusa on the left wing and with Strand Larsen on the right, although the Celta striker sometimes acted more as a second striker accompanying Haaland.
Hand in hand with Nusa, Norway grew in the party. His were the passes for the two goals: the first, a measured cross that Haaland headed into the net; the second, a display of skill to get away from three rivals and sign a somewhat lucky drop shot that Ødegaard finished off with a cross shot.

It was the third goal in 53 games for the Norwegian captain, who perhaps spurred by criticism of his lack of goals for the national team, broke free in the final minutes of the first half and had two more chances to close the game once morest a Georgia that was touched. .
The home team was closer to the goal, especially with two shots by Ødegaard and Strand Larsen, but as the minutes passed, Norway dedicated themselves more to controlling the game and avoiding surprises, ensuring an essential victory to maintain any chance.
Solbakken’s team must now win their three remaining games – including Spain’s visit to Oslo and their away match once morest Scotland – and hope for one more result to return to the final phase of a major tournament following two decades.
