One of the highlights of this year’s World Cup has been how much fans from around the globe have been enjoying themselves in the USA.
Among those to make the trip to North America this summer are the Norwegians, who are competing at the tournament for the first time since 1998.
Norway have already qualified for the Round of 32, and their fans are in high spirits, recently attending a New York Mets game where they performed their legendary Viking Row.
Norway fans perform Viking Row at New York Mets game
Some may have already seen the Norwegian Viking Row being performed across New York this summer, with one rather funny clip on social media showing their supporters chanting and rowing around a yoga class that took place in the centre of Times Square.
Elsewhere, a number of the country’s fans travelled to the Citi Field on Thursday to watch the New York Mets take on the Chicago Cubs in an MLB clash.
The Mets ended up losing the game 3-4, but the travelling fans still very much enjoyed themselves.
British outlet BBC Sport have shared a clip of the Norway fans who attended the MLB match, during which they performed the Viking Row:
The Norway squad are now leaving New York to make the trip to Boston for their final group game of the World Cup.
They are set to face off with France on Friday, with the winner of that tie finishing top of Group I.
The match itself is not that important, though, as both teams already have six points and a place in the knockout phase.
As it stands, Norway will play the Ivory Coast in the Round of 32, but topping their group could mean a clash with Sweden instead.
