In a press conference, head coach Pape Thiaw discussed the strengths of the teams in their group, focusing especially on Norway. The tactician was full of praise:

“I think this is an excellent team. For me, right now, it’s even the best European team. They’re showing some really impressive things, even though they lost their last match without their two stars.”

A powerful statement that speaks volumes about the respect commanded by this opponent, especially in a group where every detail will count as the World Cup approaches.
