Captain this week in Martin Odegaard's absence, Haaland said of his young teammate: "He's fantastic. So it is important to take care of him and not hype him too much, even though he is a great talent.

"It is important to leave him alone and give him the opportunity to develop."

Nusa, after victory over Slovenia, now has nine caps with Norway.
