The 17-year-old Moroccan, who featured for 75 minutes and completed 71 passes with a 95% accuracy rate, won every tackle he won. Haaland's two goals, including an all-time third top scorer record, secured a crucial three points for the team. He praised Bouaddi's performance, stating that he deserves to play more despite being substituted in the second half due to being left alone. Haaland also highlighted the impressive display of the entire Portuguese team, praising their football skills. He emphasized the importance of delivering on the biggest stage, and maintaining a winning mentality amid the pressure of the season.",
