Participant Preview (Season Summary)
Norway have confirmed their final 26-man World Cup squad, with Erling Haaland leading the attack and an uncapped goalkeeper drafted in after the injury to the incumbent keeper and FIFA's rejection of a nationality switch. The surprise call-up highlights Norway's thin options between the posts, leaving the coaching staff to integrate a debutant ahead of the tournament. Norway now turn to the final training camp to cement cohesion and tactical balance before the World Cup kicks off.
