New York: Erling Haaland stands at 6 feet, 5 inches, an intimidating force who can make fellow soccer players look tiny in stature and talent. Scoring seven goals across four World Cup matches entering Saturday, the Norwegian player has been described as a machine. But if you ask some loyal new fans, he's also a babygirl and princess.
Haaland has become a social media phenomenon, with his own posts and memes from others turning even soccer novices into diehard fans.
