Norwegian football fans are feeling confident ahead of their clash with England, with one supporter joking: "The Vikings plowed through England 1,000 years ago, so we can do it again."

Speaking before the match, fans shared a mix of optimism and divided loyalties, with one English-born supporter living in Norway backing her host nation, while another proudly declared themselves "Team England."

Star striker Erling Haaland also received praise, with fans describing the Manchester City forward as a role model who has remained humble despite becoming one of the biggest names in world football.
