Martin Odegaard was on the end of a playful Erling Haaland kick after Norway's 2-1 win over Sweden on Sunday, the latter drawing further comparisons to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
The incoming Man City striker Haaland grabbed both goals while captain Odegaard played the full 90 minutes. The international teammates will become opponents next season, with Haaland switching from the German Bundesliga to the Premier League. And before the two become enemies on the pitch, Haaland gave a brief glimpse of what it would be like going against him twice a season.
After the UEFA Nations League tie over the weekend, with the players leaving the pitch, cameras picked up on a cheerful altercation between the two friends, with Odegaard grabbing Haaland by his top and pushing him back. Haaland is seen laughing, and when the two separate, Haaland aims a kick at the former Real Madrid playmaker's head.
