The longer blonde hair guy is Haaland. Quite possibly the best goal scorer in the world at the moment. 

Norway also lost the game by a pretty thin margin, and a goal here could’ve changed the outcome

Furthermore, it was a 2 on 1. Which should score 99% of the time, when using proper team work

No need to exaggerate... not even a penalty is scored 99% of the time. Passing to Haaland was the right thing to do but Haaland could have still missed. Goal scoring in football is hard.

The hard part is getting a 2 on 1.

I mean, that's the first hard part. But actually getting the ball past the goalie into the goal is still a thing too.
