Ivory Coast vs Norway FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32: Erling Haaland and Norway will look to create history when they face off against Ivory Coast in their Round of 32 clash of the FIFA World Cup 2026 at the AT & T Stadium in Dallas on Tuesday. While Ivory Coast have made their maiden entry into the knockouts, it will only be the third knockout game that their European counterparts, Norway, will be playing.
In fact, Norway have never won a World Cup knockout in their previous two attempts – losing both times to former World Cup champions Italy in 1938 and 1998. Erling Haaland has been their leading goal-poacher with 4 goals in the tournament so far in the first two matches and was rested in the third game against France which Norway lost.
The Norwegians have not lost successive matches since September 2022, when they were beaten by Slovenia and Serbia in the Nations League. Ivory Coast, on the other hand, will look to create history by becoming only the third African nation to win their maiden knockout game in World Cup. Roger Milla inspired Cameroon to beat Colombia after extra-time in 1990, with Senegal repeating the feat against Sweden thanks to a Henri Camara brace 12 years later.
The Elephants will be keeping a close eye on Wilfried Singo’s recovery from a hamstring injury, while Ousmane Diomande and Odilon Kossounou are expected to carry their defence if he misses out. Franck Kessie will be their key player in the midfield, with Pepe leading the attack.
Norway also have a fitness concerns over Julian Ryerson. If the defender is unavailable, Fredrik Aursnes could move into the backline, allowing Patrick Berg to join Martin Odegaard and Sander Berge in midfield. It will be the first-ever match between Ivory Coast and Norway ever.
