Rogers: Haaland 'dødelig foran mål'

Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers acknowledges Erling Haaland's lethal finishing ability ahead of England's World Cup quarterfinal against Norway.

Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers described Erling Haaland as "dødelig foran mål" (lethal in front of goal) during a press conference ahead of Saturday's World Cup quarterfinal between England and Norway. "Is anyone who has ever stopped Erling Haaland? I'm not sure, but we'll try," said Rogers.

The England international emphasized the importance of preventing balls from reaching Haaland, who has scored seven goals in four matches so far in the tournament. "He is an incredible player, the things he does, the numbers he has, you know how good he is," Rogers added. afsport.lat
