Since 2000, Norway has failed to earn a spot in a major event.
Erling Haaland, a striker for Norway, is having a ball on his volley days after missing out on qualifying for the European Championship.
The 23-year-old Man City star was spotted kicking a ball around on a boat during a holiday in Cannes, France.

He was joined on the lake by friends and his father, 51-year-old former Leeds and City player Alfie. Erling has won the FA Cup, Champions League, and Premier League twice in the last two years. In addition to his 45 goals for City in all competitions last season, he scored six of Norway’s 14 goals during their qualification campaign. But these weren’t enough to bring them to Euro 2024, which starts this evening.Actually, not since 2000 has Norway participated in a major competition.However, Erling kept his skills current by taking a jet ski ride.Earlier last week, Erling gave a DJ gig in Marbella.Haaland was spotted partying in Marbella with a group of friends, and it was clear that they were enjoying themselves.At the Restaurante Playa Padre, Haaland let his signature long blonde locks fly while the group danced to DJ Angel Sanchez.Haaland had a cheeky smile on his face as he danced the night away to the loud music.
