In the fourth round of the UEFA Nations League, Norway lost 1-5 away to Austria. Norway superstar Erling Haaland played the whole game, but his performance was not satisfactory, and the statistics of 0 shots on target in the whole game put the young striker, who is worth a whopping 200 million euros, into question. After the game, Haaland said frankly: I'm sorry everyone, I performed too badly today, my form is not good enough, and it is my fault for losing by a big score!
Haaland's words show his sense of responsibility as a professional footballer. He did not choose to shirk responsibility, but bravely admitted his mistakes and shortcomings. This attitude will undoubtedly win the respect and support of the fans.
In addition to the defeat, Haaland also spoke about his desire for the Ballon d'Or. He said: "The performance of the national team is not ideal, and it is very difficult for me to win the Ballon d'Or in the last two years. But I will not give up all hope, I will continue to work hard to improve myself and strive for better results in future competitions.
Before this game, Norway finished top of the group! The value of the entire Norway team has reached 330 million euros, of which Haaland alone is worth as much as 200 million euros, which is much higher than the 140 million euros of the entire Austria team! But the charm of football lies in its unpredictability, and the value does not directly translate into an advantage on the field.
Haaland, as a key player of the Norway team, did not show the quality he should have throughout the game. Despite several attempts to break through and shoot, he was never able to find the back of the net. The data of 0 shots on target is undoubtedly a huge embarrassment for a striker of such a high value.
A loss in one game does not negate the value of a player. Haaland is still a top-class striker and his future is still full of possibilities. Haaland's sense of responsibility and responsibility will undoubtedly make him more mature and stable in future games. At the same time, he has not given up his desire and pursuit of the Golden Globe Award. I believe that in the near future, he will be able to show more outstanding strength on the field and work hard for his dream.
