Haaland downplays Norway's upcoming match against France in World Cup
Summary

Erling Haaland expressed indifference about Norway's final group match against France, scheduled for this Friday. Following a two-goal performance against Senegal, Haaland stated, 'I don't care much. They'll probably beat us and win the title.' Norway has already secured a spot in the Round of 32, potentially allowing for a more relaxed approach to the match. The group decider does not hold significant implications for their progression, given their previous accomplishments in the tournament.
