Who will win Brazil vs Norway?

Brazil are five-time world champions and Group C winners; Norway are back in the knockouts for the first time since 1998.

Spin the Brazil vs Norway wheel and let fate call it.

When and where do Brazil and Norway play?

Kickoff is July 5, 2026 at 20:00 UTC, 4 pm at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the same venue that stages the final on July 19. The winner advances to the quarter-finals. The match page has the details, the knockout bracket guide maps the road ahead, and the match time converter shows the kickoff on your clock.

How did Brazil and Norway reach the Round of 16?

Brazil topped Group C unbeaten, held only by Morocco, then beat Japan in the Round of 32. Norway finished second in Group I behind France, powered by a 3-2 win over Senegal, and then ended Ivory Coast's tournament in Arlington to reach the last 16 for the first time in 28 years.

Have Brazil and Norway met at a World Cup before?

Once, and Brazil would rather forget it. At France 1998, Norway beat Brazil 2-1 in the group stage, Kjetil Rekdal's late penalty completing the comeback and sending Norway into the Round of 16. The wider record is stranger still: Brazil have never beaten Norway in a senior match, with two Norway wins and two draws in their four meetings.
