The Norway national football team is the first European team since 1996 to score 11 goals in a World Cup qualifying match. İdman.biz reports this with reference to the Opta portal, which specializes in statistics.
Recall that on September 9, the Norwegians crushed Moldova 11:1 at home as part of the qualifying round for the 2026 World Cup.
The last time North Macedonia scored 11 goals in a World Cup qualifier was in 1996 against Liechtenstein. That match also ended with a score of 11:1.
After the last game, Norway leads the tournament table of qualifying group I with 15 points, while Moldova is last in the table without points.
In the next qualifying match, Norway will host Israel on October 11, and Moldova will play a friendly match against Romania on the road on October 9.
