Carrying the hopes of his nation on his shoulders, Norway striker Erling Haaland announced his arrival at the World Cup in typically emphatic fashion, with two goals in a majestic display as his side hammered Iraq 4-1 on Tuesday.
The irrepressible Haaland's first-half double means he has now scored on his debut in the German Bundesliga, the English Premier League, the Champions League and the World Cup finals, and few doubted that he would deliver on the biggest international stage.
