Haaland Matches Vieri's World Cup Feat: Scores in All of First Four Matches

Erling Haaland keeps rewriting the record books. The Norwegian striker has now scored in every single one of his first four World Cup matches – a feat no European player had accomplished since Christian Vieri did it for Italy back in 1998. Haaland opened his account at the 2026 tournament against Iraq, then added goals against Senegal and Ivory Coast before continuing his streak in the fourth game. That run puts him in elite company, matching Vieri's benchmark from the France '98 World Cup. The numbers are staggering. The 24-year-old has racked up 27 goals in his last 14 appearances for Norway, a testament to his devastating form on the international stage. And it's not just individual glory. Norway's run to the quarterfinals marks the deepest World Cup advance in the nation's history. With Haaland leading the line, this team has shattered expectations and written a new chapter for Norwegian football.
