With the United States no longer in the running for the FIFA World Cup, it is time for Americans to pick a new team to root for. And while it saddens me to no longer be able to cheer on the good ol’ red, white, and blue, there is a new soccer darling taking the internet by storm. May I present for your consideration, Erling Haaland, a giant Viking man who plays for Norway.

@heatscoreapp HAALAND REALLY GOT SCARED OF HIS OWN REFLECTION 😭 Bro is built like a final boss on the field, scores goals for fun, runs through defenders like they’re cones… then sees himself in the mirror and jumps like he just saw prime Van Dijk waiting for him 💀 This is why Haaland is so funny — one minute he looks like a robot created in a soccer lab, the next minute he’s acting like the goofiest dude alive 😂 HeatScore fam 95/100 Download HeatScore for live sports, player cards, 3D plays, and the wildest Fan Zone in the game #Haaland #ManCity #SoccerTikTok #Football #HeatScore

He’s got personality. He’s got talent. He looks like he just came from raiding a village somewhere—I think we’ve found our winner.
If we’re all in agreement, I think it’s time we start practicing our Viking row now so we can be ready for Norway’s match against England today.
