Haaland was kept off the scoresheet for the first time in this World Cup; he had scored seven times in his four appearances going into Saturday, but barely had a chance to add to that total Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis has been an insane journey,\u201d Haaland said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haaland acknowledged afterward that his energy was gone as the game, which was played with a heat index topping 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 Celsius), wore along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt was not a tough decision to take him out,\u201d Norway coach St\u00e5le Solbakken said. \u201cHe was finished. Maybe I should have taken him out 10 minutes before. &#8230; He also got a dead leg in the second half, so that combined with the fatigue. He did everything he could.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Manchester City striker was, without question, one of the stars of the tournament \u2014 but England silenced him. And his former Borussia Dortmund teammate, Jude Bellingham, wound up stealing the show by scoring both goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haaland and Bellingham shared an embrace when the game ended, before the Norwegian striker made the long, slow walk from the field to the locker room for the final time in this World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was already a star within the sport coming into the tournament \u2014 but his larger-than-most-in-soccer frame and larger-than-life personality, combined with his long blond hair and unique mannerisms, turned Haaland into a soccer folk hero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think this has changed my life, to be honest,\u201d Haaland said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">England&#8217;s plan \u2014 forged in part by his Manchester City teammates and others who have played with and against him at the club level \u2014 was clear: Do not let Haaland get the ball. It was largely successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haaland had two shot attempts in the game, one on goal, and was virtually silenced after the first half. There was a 2-on-1 chance late in the first half where a pass didn&#8217;t go his way; if it had, that may have been his best scoring opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There wasn&#8217;t much for him to get excited about the rest of the way. He stayed on the field for a few minutes after the final whistle, saluting Norway&#8217;s fans after the team&#8217;s best World Cup run ever. When the 2030 tournament rolls around, it won&#8217;t be a surprise if Norway makes another deep run \u2014 and that&#8217;s clearly going to be the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think we put Norway on the map,\u201d he said. <a href=\"https:\/\/japantoday.com\/category\/2026-fifa-world-cup\/erling-haaland-neutralized-by-england-and-subbed-off-late-as-norway's-world-cup-run-ends\">(JapanToday)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erling Haaland&#8217;s day ended earlier than many expected.
