After a 28-year wait, the Norway national team is back on the world stage, and they are bringing a "Golden Generation" with them. In this episode, we break down how manager Ståle Solbakken transformed a Scandinavian underdog into one of Europe’s most lethal attacking units. We dive into the stats behind their dominant qualifying run—including Erling Haaland’s staggering 16 goals and Martin Ødegaard’s continent-leading assist tally.
From their tactical shift toward aggressive pressing to their newfound defensive discipline, we explore whether this squad has what it takes to survive a "Group of Death" featuring France and Senegal. Is Norway poised for a historic run in North America, or will the weight of expectation be too much? Tune in to find out why no one wants to face the Lions in 2026.
