I was born in the 90's, the shit I've seen from our NT is out of this world!
Anyone remember Espen Johnsen v Spain (2003) the first leg? He was a beast! Praised as the savior of Norwegian football! Raul just couldn't beat him! I'll never forget when Raul saw Espen rush out, and decided to lob, but Espen stopped his rush, making it look as if Raul handed him the ball.
Remember the second leg? Where Espen messed up his ankle, didn't sub and we ended up losing 3-0. He wasn't the only cause, but the fall from grace within a week was immense.
And then you have the whole diva-saga between Carew and Riise. Both skilled, but dumber than rocks.
It went downhill from there. Between 2000-2020 the NT has been fumbling every chance they've had. When we beat Portugal in 2010, but fumbled our way out of another competition.
At this point the sentiment towards our NT is "I don't know how, but we'll fuck it up somehow".
How's that gonna help the situation around the killings of teachers by radicalized islamists in France?
