Erling Haaland has become Norway’s all-time leading goalscorer.

The Manchester City striker went into Thursday night’s Nations League clash against Slovenia only one behind Jorgen Juve, who scored his 33 goals nearly a century ago.

It took Haaland only seven minutes to equal the mark, the 24-year-old converting a rebound in emphatic fashion.

And in the 62nd minute he tucked a side-footed effort into the bottom corner for his 34th international goal to hold the record outright.

Haaland, who recently reached the 100-goal mark for City in only 105 appearances, has been just as prolific for his country as his club, with his historic feat coming in just 36 matches.

He made his Norway debut in September 2019 against Malta, scoring his first goal the following year against Austria.

Haaland has scored three hat-tricks for his country – against Romania, Gibraltar and Kosovo.
