⚽ Football | World Cup 2022

Makes me really wonder about the age-old question: “Is genetics more important than environment”?
Definitely in Haaland’s case it is all genetics. Coming from Norway with little world class footballing background…he was just born to be great.

Must be complete and utter madness to be in his shoes.

Love that he looks good natured bout it. Comes with the territory of being the undisputed greatest of all time, I suppose.

They mad for this lad.

A shame that we may never see him in the World Cup. Ever.

Unless he switches allegiance. Wasn’t he born in Leeds.

Too late for that. Maybe he will lead Norway to some international success, who knows. If Iceland can make it…

If anything Norway have underperformed on the world stage historically, not just of late. They have a golden generation of sorts nowadays with the likes of Gunners captain Odegaard (only 24? Seems like he’s been around forever), Haaland et al. Better strike while the iron is hot or it’s back to the frozen tundra of football irrelevance.

Btw Taiwan Women thrashed Indonesia 4-0 to advance to the next round of Olympic qualifying.

Metaphorically speaking, that is :slight_smile:

Looks like a tapestry.
