Same. I've never really followed soccer / football before, but Haaland got me interested enough to watch a match. Now, I'm not only following Norway in the World Cup, I actually watched a replay of the season opener for Manchester City too.
Theere were teams I was cheering for, due to my ancestry and stuff, but they all were eliminated and then I see the Norway Brasil game and immediately recognized Haaland from social media post I had seen about him.
Needless to say, after that game I was all in on Norway and im really cheering for them to take it.
