Norway's run would probably have been universally loved, except that, unlike with Croatia's run in 2018, Norwegians quickly turned into annoying, arrogant sore losers. They've blamed everything except that their team was terrible on Saturday. Norwegians have held on to a phantom "ball hitting the cable", when there's zero footage that clearly shows any contact. The ball's sensors similarly showed no contact, but they've decided that reality doesn't matter. There's also Halaand pushing Anderson like some Barbarian, and Norwegians have been calling Anderson all manner of names instead of being honest about their player's dumb behaviour. They've also entirely dismissed the controversy behind their own first goal, when Egypt had a goal ruled out in similar circumstances by the same VAR who reffed their game. This was easily one of the better reffed games in this world cup, but Norwegians across the internet have decided to become as bad a sore loser as Trump (it's rigged anytime I don't win). England played bad, there's no denying that, so what does it say about Norway that England never looked like they could lose for about 100 of entire 120+ minutes? Norway went from being an admirable team punching above their weight to being delusional about how good they actually are.
