The Norwegian team starred in one of the most memorable moments of the 2026 World Cup when they celebrated, together with the fans, qualifying for the round of 16 of the competition.
After the 3-2 victory over the Senegal team, the players went to the stands and, to the sound of a drum, began a choreography that quickly involved the entire stadium.
Led by captain Martin Ødegaard, the players began to imitate the paddling movement, a gesture that was immediately replicated by the thousands of fans present. The result was an impressive collective celebration, marked by harmony between team and public.
On the pitch, Norway secured their place in the next phase thanks to a double from Erling Haaland and a goal from Marcus Pedersen. Outside the four lines, however, it was the party in the stands that ended up conquering social media and gaining the status of one of the most striking images of this World Cup.
The Norwegian team and fans doing the Row are just beautiful.
