Haaland first caught the world's eye in a FIFA U-20 world Cup game against Honduras where he scored 9 goals in that game as the young Norwegians ran out 12-0 winners. That was breathe taking. a Teenager banging 9 goals in a single game!!!. Erling would end up winning the Golden Boot as Norway crashed out of the group stage. He made 3 appearances and scored his Golden Boot winning goals all in 90 minutes.
