On July 6th, Beijing time, Haaland scored twice, helping Norway defeat Brazil 2-1 and reach the World Cup quarterfinals for the first time in the club's history.
Haaland said, "I really can't believe it."
"I never imagined this would happen in my life. I dreamed of representing Norway in the World Cup, but to be honest, I never dreamed of beating Brazil."
"I used to think that some things were impossible, but it seems I was wrong."
"Being in the World Cup at this moment feels a bit surreal. Of course you want to be here and perform, but to score 7 goals for Norway in the World Cup is really special."
"I was speechless because it all felt so unreal. Sometimes I had to pinch my arm because it was so important."
Norway has now reached the quarterfinals, having previously defeated Ivory Coast, Senegal, and Brazil. The team is brimming with confidence, and Haaland doesn't feel that the journey is over yet.
Haaland said: "We have been growing, and today's style of play proves that Norway is a very good team. We are actually one of the better teams in Europe and the world."
“What we did was amazing. It took 28 years, which is a really long time.”
“I’m 25 years old, so this isn’t my fault, but you can blame me for bringing me here.”
"I am incredibly proud of my country and all of us."
