Ivory Coast vs Norway: World Cup Round of 32 Details, Kick-Off Time, and TV Info

The upcoming World Cup match between Ivory Coast and Norway promises an intriguing encounter as both teams have surprised many in this tournament. Erling Haaland leads the Norwegian squad, aiming to push his team further into the knockout rounds.

Norway, appearing in their first World Cup finals since 1998, dominated their group stage matches with wins against Iraq and Senegal. Despite a heavy 4-1 loss to France, coach Stale Solbakken rested key players during that game, meaning Norway will likely field a fresh lineup for this clash.

On the other side, Ivory Coast impressed with victories over Ecuador and Curacao, narrowly losing to four-time champions Germany late in their group phase. Their resilience has made them a tough opponent heading into the knockout stages.
