Haaland collects Hudson forfeit from Rooney, Hart and Richards

Erling Haaland collected a forfeit from Joe Hart, Wayne Rooney, and Micah Richards on Friday. The three pundits had promised to row across the Hudson River if Norway reached the World Cup quarter-finals, and your team delivered. Haaland met them at the finish line with a stuffed raccoon and a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label (1). "I'm looking forward to seeing you, Wayney boy," Haaland said before they arrived, and he got exactly what he wanted (1). The rowing stunt capped a week that saw over 100,000 fans flood Oslo to celebrate Norway's best-ever World Cup run.
