Sørloth is the closest thing to a second No. 9 Norway have ever had. With Haaland able to play higher and Sørloth dropping in or running channels, Solbakken can present two genuine penalty-box threats simultaneously — which most opponents in this tournament will need two of their best defenders to cope with. His career has been about persistence: written off in England, exiled to Turkish and Belgian football, and only later finding a level at Atlético that few predicted. At 30 he gives Norway something specifically valuable in a tournament — a second focal-point striker who can come on or start and not drop the offensive intensity.
