Hangeland: Biggest Night in Norwegian Football History

Brede Hangeland describes Norway's upcoming match against Brazil as 'perhaps the biggest night in Norwegian football history' ahead of their round of 16 encounter.

Landslagets spilleransvarlige Brede Hangeland called the match a 'fantastic frame' and urged the team to use all the attention in the US and back home in Norway as extra energy. Norway faces Brazil at 22:00, with the match being broadcast on NRK1 and NRK TV.

Norway's first-choice right-back Julian Ryerson has been ruled out since suffering an injury against Senegal, with Marcus Holmgren Pedersen taking his place. Landslagssjef Ståle Solbakken noted some issues at the right-back position, with Hangeland confirming all players are fit to play but not revealing the lineup. truewildslot.com
