Haaland scores 7 goals at World Cup: Record 52 years of waiting

At the 2026 World Cup, Erling Haaland created a historic milestone when he scored seven goals in his first participation in the tournament. This is a feat no player has achieved since 1974, when Polish striker Grzegorz Lato scored seven goals and became the tournament's top scorer.

Grzegorz Lato helped the Polish team win third place at the 1974 World Cup, participating in a tournament in which West Germany was crowned champion. In the third place match that year, Lato scored the decisive goal against Brazil, confirming his talent as one of the best strikers of his time.

52 years later, Erling Haaland had a more impressive debut when he and Norway participated in the knock-out round of the 2026 World Cup. In the match against Brazil in the round of 16, Haaland scored two goals, helping the home team overcome the opponent with a score of 3-1, officially eliminating Brazil from the tournament. With this brilliant form, Haaland is currently leading the scoring list at the World Cup, equaling the achievement with two superstars Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé.

The competition between these three players is becoming very fierce, as each of them has the ability to score very well and participate in important matches. Haaland, with his young age and outstanding talent, is becoming one of the most notable names in this tournament.

Achieving Haaland's record is not only a personal pride but also a great success for Norwegian football, as they are gradually asserting their position on the world football map. The appearance of talented young players like Haaland promises to bring many positive things for the future of the Norwegian team.
