Norway’s men’s national football team revived spirits during the weekend after beating Wales 3-1 in the latest Nations League match in Oslo. Antonio Nusa was billed as best player of the match, as the team headed to Copenhagen for their league final against Denmark.
Nusa won unusual praise from Wales’ coach Craig Bellamy, who called Nusa one of the best wingers in the world. Nusa was the first to score in the match on Saturday night that Norway ended up winning by a score of 3-1.
“I just do what I can on the field, and try to enjoy it and give folks a good show at the same time,” a modest Nusa, who plays professionally for Leipzig in Germany, told state broadcaster NRK after the match. He has made it clear he loves playing on home turf at Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo and thinks “football is fun, regardless, so I just enjoy it. My folks are here, my friends are here, so we enjoy it together.”
After being the first to score 59 minutes into the match, he was followed by Andreas Schjelderup on a pass from Erling Braut Haaland, who also scored near the end of the match.
