Odegaard and Trossard claim important wins

Martin Odegaard v Estonia 2025

Martin Odegaard helped Norway maintain their 100% record in World Cup qualifying with a narrow 1-0 victory over Estonia.

After providing an assist against Italy last week, our captain played a crucial part in the game's only goal, slipping in Erling Haaland who finished his effort on the rebound.

Martin played the full 90 minutes in Tallinn as Norway made it four wins from four in their pursuit of a first World Cup appearance since 1998.

Elsewhere, Leandro Trossard started Belgium's seven-goal thriller against Wales in Brussels. Leo had a hand in Belgium's second goal, playing a key pass to Maxim de Cuyper who set up Youri Tielemans to thump home. 

Jeremy Doku made it 3-0 before half-time when Trossard was substituted for Dodi Lukebakio. Wales mounted a remarkable comeback thanks to goals from Harry Wilson, Sorba Thomas and Brennan Johnson to level the scores. 

But Kevin De Bruyne then put the Red Devils back in front on 88 minutes to edge the thrilling contest 4-3. Belgium are now three points behind Wales in Group J but with two games in hand.

Kieran Tierney was not in the squad for Scotland's 4-0 victory over Lichtenstein in a friendly.
