Erling Haaland claims he was threatened by Swedish opponent who dubbed him a "w****"

Erling Haaland has claimed he was called a "w****" by Swedish opponent Alexander Milosevic during Norway's 2-1 UEFA Nations League victory in what was a heated affair in Stockholm.

Norway ran out 2-1 winners in a contest that saw all three goals come from Manchester's finest with United star Anthony Elanga netting a late consolation after City new boy Haaland bagged a brace to hand his country the win. Norway's second goal was followed by a controversial celebration from Haaland, who made sure to celebrate directly in front of Milosevic after their long-running battle.

Two goals from the former Borussia Dortmund sensation ensures his goal tally in a Norway shirt now sits at 18 in 19 appearances. The win also leaves Norway sitting top of their Nations League group after two wins from two games.
