Thursday against Scotland Norwegian national team striker Erling Haaland is a doubt for the match next Sunday the 19th against Scotland, after suffering a sprained ankle in the friendly match against the Faroe Islands. The Manchester City attacker only played the second half in Oslo: He took the field in place of Celta player Jorgen Strand Larsen, who scored the first goal of the match.

Erling Haaland damaged his left ankle while trying to reach the ball at the far post. He showed symptoms of pain when he stood up and had to be treated by the team's doctors. He was able to continue, but he seemed uncomfortable due to the discomfort in the affected area. The Norwegian coach, Stale Solbakken, downplayed the injury. He revealed that it was a sprain and that he had been examined at the end of the match by the team's health officials.

On Friday, November 17, he will be observed again, although the coach indicated that the illness is mild. Even so, their presence on Sunday against Scotland is doubtful. Norway, included in group A of the qualifying phase for Euro 2024, has no option but to reach one of the first two places and reach the final phase directly. Their limited chances go through the play-offs.

This is what we know about Haaland

Norwegian manager Stale Solbakken has confirmed that Haaland will be assessed by his medical staff, which will be a cause for concern among City fans. "I think everything is going well. But I haven't spoken to him," Solbakken told Norwegian media TV2. "At least he's back in the game. So it can't be that bad!"
