This Thursday, October 12, Cyprus and Norway will face off in a thrilling Uefa European Championship Qualification match at the Aek Arena - George Karapatakis stadium in Larnaca.

Haaland scored 2 goals to secure the win. Make sure you don’t miss the matchup under the sunny sky at 18:45 (UTC).

Cyprus 5th XI: Ready to Shock the Soccer World!

With just 2 goals for and 5 against, they are in search of a much-needed victory to snap their current dry spell. In their last match against Armenia, Cyprus showed improvement, managing to score 1 goal and eventually secure a draw in the Friendlies. However, they will need to build on this result to start climbing back up the rankings.

Haaland Strikes Again: An Unstoppable Performance at the Rivalry Game

With a 4-game unbeaten streak and a strong performance in their last match, Norway is returning to the pitch with a confident edge. E. Haaland has been in prime form as of late, netting 4 goals in the tournament this year, and 2 goals in the last time they faced Jordan on 20.06.2023. Nusa has also lit up the attacking end with 1 goal in their latest outing, reinforcing the team's potential to have a successful match. With all players in the squad healthy and feeling good, Norway is poised to make their mark this match.

It's set to be an exciting match between these two teams, especially as the past 1 encounters have produced an average total of 4.0 goals. Despite Norway having lost none of the twelve meetings between the two, Cyprus have improved greatly and will no doubt be looking to pull off a surprise win this time round.

Norway Charges Ahead to Victory with Six Goals

The Norwegian club showed true dominance during their 6-0 win over Jordan in their most recent game. It was a thrilling victory that augurs well for their upcoming match. With the team now invigorated and in form, they are aiming to exceed their already impressive goal tally.
