Norway News:
Playing in their fourth tournament finals and first in the previous 28 years, Norway have given a great account of themselves so far in the World Cup group stages.In the opening round of fixtures, the Vikings produced a ruthless display of attacking football, with Manchester City’s Erling Haaland netting a brace to beat Iraq 4-1 and propel his team to the summit of Group I, likely securing their place in the knockout phase.That progression was then confirmed on Tuesday morning in their second game, as Stale Solbakken’s men kept Senegal at arm's length to post a 3-2 victory and make it six points from their two matches so far.Although they have achieved maximum points, Norway sit second behind France in Group I due to Les Bleus’ superior goal difference, though do have the chance to claim top spot with victory on Friday evening.
Hobbling off injured after only 13 minutes against Senegal, it is highly unlikely that Borussia Dortmund defender Julian Ryerson features on Friday, with his replacement Marcus Pedersen almost certain to fill the void.Scoring four goals in his first two matches, making him the joint second highest scorer in the tournament so far, Haaland is undoubtedly Norway's danger man and will be eager to impress against one of the world's best international sides.
France News:
Having reached the final in 2022 and won the competition four years prior, France have so far shown why they are one of the favourites to win this summer’s World Cup too.Despite a late scare, Kylian Mbappe’s brace alongside a sumptuous Bradley Barcola strike saw off a spirited Senegalese side in the opening fixture as Les Bleus began their campaign with a 3-1 victory.This was followed up by a professional display against Iraq as Didier Deschamps’ men took an early lead through Mbappe once more, before sealing the game in the second half, winning 3-0 and therefore sit top of the group with six points.
France's biggest selection talking point comes in attack with Paris Saint-Germain duo Barcola and Desire Doue playing one game each so far in Group I, though the latter did not have his best game against Iraq.Manu Kone and Lucas Digne performed well when introduced in central midfield and left back respectively on Monday evening too, leaving it difficult to predict whether Aurelien Tchouameni or Theo Hernandez can win their places back.Also netting on four occasions, Mbappe has proved to be Deschamps' main man once again on the international stage and will be hungry to chase down Lionel Messi as the highest scorer of all time at World Cups.
