Brazil’s FIFA World Cup campaign has provided reassurance and anxiety in almost equal measure. Carlo Ancelotti’s side have won three of four matches, but needed a goal from Gabriel Martinelli in the 95th minute to get past Japan in the round of 16.
The fixture has a historical oddity. Brazil has never defeated Norway. Four previous meetings have drawn twice and lost twice, including a 2-1 defeat at the 1998 World Cup when Tore Andre Flo and Kjetil Rekdal canceled out Bebeto’s opener. Norwegian coach Stale Solbakken was a player from that side.
