On June 9, 2025, at Tallinn’s A. Le Coq Arena, Estonia mounted a stubborn defensive effort against Norway in their World Cup qualifying clash. For the entire first half, Estonia’s disciplined backline frustrated the Norwegian attack, with goalkeeper Karl Hein making several crucial saves to deny threats from Erling Haaland and teammates. Norway’s best chance came just before halftime, but Estonia held firm.
The breakthrough came in the 54th minute. Martin Ødegaard delivered a perfectly timed through ball behind Estonia’s defensive line, finding Erling Haaland in the box. Haaland’s initial shot was saved by Hein, but the ball ricocheted off the crossbar and fell kindly to Haaland, who reacted swiftly to slot home the rebound and give Norway a 1–0 lead.
Despite relentless Norwegian pressure afterward, Estonia stood resilient, blocking multiple attempts and preventing any further goals. Norway’s victory marked their fourth straight win in Group I, keeping their flawless qualifying record intact. Estonia, though defeated, earned praise for their tactical discipline and resistance against one of Europe’s most potent attacks.
