After Spain beat Norway 1-0 in a Euro 2024 qualifier, Dani Carvajal said his side managed to keep Erling Haaland quiet.

As quoted by GOAL, the Real Madrid right-back gave his two cents on facing the PS51 million (Sky Sports) on Sunday night.

It's safe to say that Dani Carvajal firmly believes that Spain collectively ensured that Erling Haaland was ineffective as Norway suffered a narrow defeat.

Dani Carvajal says Spain made Erling Haaland uncomfortable in Norway defeat The 23-year-old, branded as 'elite' by Sergio Aguero (via OneFootball) was far from his devastating best against Luis de la Fuente's side.

Even ex-Manchester City centre-back Aymeric Laporte poked fun at his former teammate after his nation managed to ensure that he was an anonymous figure on the day.

Now, even Dani Carvajal has acknowledged how Spain managed to quell the threat imposed by Erling Haaland, which was central in their victory against Norway.

"It's simple: Erling Haaland is out of form Fair play to Spain and Dani Carvajal for managing to tame a striker of the calibre of Erling Haaland.

It is worth saying that despite Haaland's magnificence, it would be a tall task for any player to lead the Norwegians to victory against one of the best and biggest footballing nations in the world.

But that does not change the fact that the treble-winner is simply out of form.

Despite leading the Premier League's goalscoring charts this season, Erling Haaland has been uncharacteristically wasteful in front of goal.

While Haaland's back-to-goal game has always been rather underwhelming for such a towering figure.

It is worth emphasising that the Leeds-born goalscorer is only human and it is inevitable that he will return to terrorising defences shortly.
