On the backside of the article, you possibly can vote for who you assume was Norway’s greatest participant towards Denmark.
Under is the change of Nettavisen gamers.
Ørjan Nyland – 3
No likelihood on the primary two scores. A bit shaky with the ball at his toes on a few tough back-plays, earlier than he made an enormous mistake when he put Denmark 1-3 up simply earlier than the top.
Julian Ryerson – 5
Recent from a marathon season that ended with a Champions League victory. The sport opened with a variety of power, however he was unable to affect the offensive recreation earlier than the break. He tried to carry after the break the place he was rather more offensive, and he was one of many freshest Norwegians after the break earlier than he was going to depart the sphere with a bang.
Kristoffer Ajer – 4
Contained in the central protection once more from the beginning. They needed to see each Højbjerg and Vestergaard rating a purpose in their very own field earlier than the break. Makes an attempt had been made to seek out good options with the ball at his toes, and he additionally didn’t get the protection so as together with Østigård on Saturday.
Leo Skiri Østigård – 4
Solbakken put out his palms first when he simply performed within the again room to loosen up with nobody operating. Block the primary end within the assault that gave 0-1, with out serving to him. An ideal free-kick after 1 / 4 of an hour, however the header went vast. One other large likelihood later within the half when solely a feverish save from Kasper Schmeichel prevented the scoring. Nice block when Rasmus Højlund bought by means of on his personal after the break, however as soon as once more Norway should register comparatively easy objectives from the again. He has been named as a pacesetter in Norway’s central defence, however the reality stays that the Norwegian staff will concede many objectives towards little likelihood.
Marcus Holmgren Pedersen – 2
Numerous checks had been placed on instantly, earlier than it went utterly incorrect at 0-1. His keeper continued throughout virtually all the again row, which opened up a sea of area on his aspect which finally grew to become a again row. He seemed marked after the late purpose, and likewise had an unpleasant ball mistake when he wished a free-kick after being left mendacity. He took off at half-time and did not have the possibility to rectify what was a horrible evening for Feyenoord’s profile.
Martin Ødegaard – 7 – one of the best in Norway
The Arsenal captain hardly ever misplaced the ball a number of occasions earlier than the break and he didn’t be the tenth in entrance of everybody else that he’s at his greatest. Then he actually took accountability after the break, and pulled off a C-minute after 70 minutes when he discovered Erling Braut Haaland within the again room with a totally completely different head cross world wide, which scored 2-1. A goal-scoring cross that even Tom Brady would reveal with respect from the Norwegian captain. Rather more at stake after the break, and maybe there ought to have been two scoring passes after Haaland canceled out the primary purpose.
Sander Berge – 4
He appears marked after an extended season towards Kosovo, and he adopted a bit in the identical monitor in Brøndby. His toes couldn’t be moved rapidly sufficient, and on Saturday too there have been many passes again and throughout in conditions the place progress might have been made. Higher after the break when Norway gained extra management, however beg an anchor place which is unsure forward of the Nations League video games in September.
Morten Thorsby – 4
He welcomes the dueling energy with the Norwegian midfield and threw himself into fights right here and there. In and of himself he made a great block on what was 0-1 when he threw himself in and blocked a shot, however the fall ended when Højbjerg scored. In any other case nameless.
Oscar Bobb – 5
He tried to become involved earlier than the break with out success, however actually awakened after the break when he discovered area in entrance of the Danish again line. He created various small risks together with his dazzling close-range approach and held his personal for nearly all the 90 minutes.
Erling Braut Haaland – 6
He barely bought something to work with earlier than he bought up in a great place after a bit over half an hour, however the end ended. He first made it 1-2 and might need been robbed by VAR, earlier than springing the offside lure, rounding Kasper Schmeichel and scoring quickly after. Not a lot could be finished with Norway’s defensive issues, they usually have a moist assault of their very own on this assortment.
Antonio Nusa – 3
will get the chance from the beginning out on the left, however he was not capable of affect the sport kind of. Norway had been hardly ever capable of set up themselves within the Danish half and Nusa utterly disappeared from the sport. Taken off at half time after half of disappointment and frustration.
