Ivory Coast vs Norway: TV Channel, Kick-Off Time and How to Watch World Cup Last-32 Match

Ivory Coast vs Norway: What to Expect in the World Cup Last-32

Ivory Coast and Norway face off in a fascinating last-32 World Cup match as Erling Haaland aims to lead his team beyond this stage. This is Norway's first World Cup finals appearance since 1998. They advanced from their group comfortably, securing qualification early despite a heavy 4-1 defeat to France. Coach Stale Solbakken rested key players during that loss, so Norway enters this knockout round fresh and ready.

The Elephants have made their mark too, beating Ecuador and Curacao in the group phase and pushing four-time champions Germany to the limit before narrowly losing due to a late goal by super-sub Deniz Undav.
