Erling Haaland -- World Cup 2026

Norway • Manchester City

Erling Haaland plays at MetLife Stadium on June 22 when Norway face Senegal in Group I. It is the most anticipated individual appearance at any MetLife match -- the most prolific scorer in Premier League history at a World Cup for the first time.

Who is Erling Haaland?

Haaland turned 25 in July 2025 and is in the absolute prime of his career. He has scored over 150 goals for Manchester City, won the Champions League, Premier League, and FA Cup, and broken every Premier League scoring record available to him. At international level he has historically been less dominant -- Norway squad around him has not always matched his individual quality -- but this squad is the strongest Norway have assembled and Haaland has elevated his performance in a deeper, more complete role.

Erling Haaland and New York

The Norwegian community in New York is concentrated in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, where Haaland face has been on restaurant windows since Norway qualified. For the June 22 MetLife match, Bay Ridge will be the epicenter of Norwegian New York.
