Senegal Coach Pape Thiaw Labels Norway Clash a ‘Final’ Ahead of Haaland Test
Senegal boss Pape Thiaw insists their next group match against Norway is a must-win. After a 3-1 opening defeat to France, the Lions have no room for error at MetLife Stadium. Thiaw praised Norway’s strong start in the tournament but ruled out a one-man focus. “Erling needs no introduction, but there won’t be an anti-Haaland plan. It will be an anti-Norway plan,” he said. The coach expressed confidence in his defence, reminding fans that every game feels like a final. With two matches left, Senegal must secure a positive result to keep their knockout hopes alive.
