Norway have been so sloppy getting the ball into the final third of the park. They've not utilised the strengths of Erling Haaland.
Norway needed a lot more from their front line.

Well, his goal has so far made all the difference. Depart with yer head held high.
Gavi is off for Oihan Sancet.

Stefan Strandberg, fair play for continuing as long as you did. Kris Ajer has been warming up for an awfy long time... he's on.
Fredrik Aursnes is also off for Kristian Thorstvedt.
Norway 0-1 Spain
And rightly so, that is his last act.
On is Alfonso Pedraza.

Goodness gracious me, Ferran Torres.
Dunno what was worse, though, his wayward shot or the bairn in the crowd's attempt to catch the thing.
Poor show, wee man.

Perhaps a wee, late, 89th minute equaliser would do nicely for Scotland...

“The Scots are having a party and Haaland is in his bed” is now ringing around the pub.
The French rugby fans inside are a tad bemused. They’re not sure why a pub full of Scotsmen and women are getting so excited watching this football match...
Norway 0-1 Spain
As I mentioned earlier, if we're feeling a tad greedy, a wee draw wouldn't go a miss.
On the nerves-o-meter, I don't know for how long I'd be able to hack that... so if I'm being really, really, really picky, a Norway equaliser later-ish on, would be lovely.
Cheers.
Norway 0-1 Spain
There are actual footballing things still happening, while we're all celebrating away.
Aymeric Laporte is shown a caution for bodying Oscar Bobb. A bit silly.
Norway make two changes, too, with Bobb and Patrick Berg exiting for Alexander Sorloth and Antonio Nusa.

An incredibly lengthy wait to see what conclusion VAR would deliver, but as the goal stands, you can hear the ripple of Tartan Army celebrations kicking off.
It will take something special from Norway to turn this game around now.

YA BEAUTY!
Nearly five minutes later, we have confirmation... Spain have the lead, and we all know what that means!

The Spanish celebrate with conviction but the Norwegians surround the referee.
When Torres has that initial strike, Morata looked offside to me. It hit him and kept the ball in play.
Everyone is unsure what's going on.
Norway 0-0 Spain
Humming and hawing and twiddling thumbs.
Anyone fancy a wordsearch? A sudoku?
Got enough time to start and finish one here...
Norway 0-0 Spain
AWE COME ON.
Checking... again.
For offside... again.
Gavi
Here we go... finally!
Everyone and their granny had a pop there in the build-up, but Gavi finally buries.
Not the sweetest, but he won't care a jot.

Erling Haaland gets things up and running again.
David Garcia and Mikel Oyarzabal are on for the second half in the Spanish ranks.

It was controversial. The other thing is, Morata could have left the ball alone - the ball was going in and it would've stood.
For me, that goal should stand but the officials have decided against it.
