Erling Haaland left stunned as Spain secures their spot in Euro 2024 with 1-0 victory over Norway

Spain secured their place in the Euro 2024 after upsetting Norway by 1-0 on Sunday, October 15. Notably, as a result of the Spanish victory, Scotland’s win also served as a turning point in their attempt to qualify from Group A in the Euro 2024, owing to some fantastic performances. Notably, star footballer and great midfielder Gavi scored the winning goal early in the second half, which helped them book their spot in the tournament.

However, Spain achieved this goal in an impressive manner, as there were still two games left. After this emphatic victory, Norway’s star footballer, Erling Haaland, found himself facing a difficult situation after losing the game against Spain on October 15 despite some clinical effort.

However, the only way for them to advance is to reach the play-offs, and for this to remain feasible, they have to finish third in their group’s competition and hope that Serbia advances from Group G to make sure they get a place in the playoffs. Moreover, Spain’s excellent defense effort effectively thwarted Haaland throughout the game. Speaking about their position, Norway is currently fifth in the rankings, five points behind Spain and Scotland, who hold a tie for first.

We are going home happy and with our ticket to the Euro 2024: Erling Haaland

Meanwhile, Spanish footballer Dani Carvajal has opened up about the tactics and pragmatic skills they used to win against Erling Haaland. Dani Carvajal says that they played the complete game to get a win over Norway. In addition, the 31-year-old great was happy to go back with Euro 2024 tickets. Moreover, the star player feels their side has done a fantastic job to get a win against Norway.

“We came here to win, we played a complete game. They hardly gave us any chances and we are going home happy and with our ticket to the Euro. Defensively, from Unai [Simon] to Alvaro [Morata] we have been very compact, we have not allowed him to receive any comfortable ball. Praise the work of the center-backs because they have done a fantastic job,” Dani Carvajal told Teledeporte.
