Norway is facing an unusual situation ahead of their World Cup quarter-final against England. After British media reports of a possible food poisoning affecting the Scandinavian team, it turns out that the concern is related to a flu virus and not poisoning.
According to reports, the virus has affected several members of the Norwegian delegation, who have shown symptoms such as fever, fatigue and cough. Striker Strand Larsen has overcome health problems and returned to training with the team, while defender Pedersen continues to remain in isolation at his hotel as a precaution.
The problems have not spared coach Stale Solbakken, who admitted in the press conference that he felt exhausted after the match with Brazil.
" I left the staff to celebrate after the match with Brazil. I was so tired, I went straight to bed ," said Solbakken.
The most encouraging news for the Norwegians concerns Erling Haaland. The Manchester City striker has not shown any symptoms and is training normally with the team, ready for the important challenge in Miami.
Meanwhile, the Norwegian Football Association has not welcomed the coverage of the situation in the English media. According to reports, the federation's leaders see this as an attempt to create psychological pressure on the team before the match.
England, on the other hand, continue their preparations without underestimating their opponent. Coach Thomas Tuchel and his players remain extremely focused, aware that a Norway team with Haaland in excellent form is a dangerous opponent, despite the flu problems that have affected part of the team.
