Norway head coach Stale Solbakken has urged his players to play their own game and not be overawed by the occasion when they take on five-time World Cup winners Brazil in the Round of 16 at the MetLife Stadium on Sunday. Speaking at his pre-match press conference in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Solbakken acknowledged Brazil’s status as favourites — but was careful to add that he does not consider them overwhelming favourites, pointing to Norway’s long run of strong results, high confidence levels and belief in their own style of play.
