Erling Haaland's dad roasted World Cup refs for controversial Norway exit

[ASFN Admin]

Alfie Haaland, the legendary soccer player and father to Norway World Cup breakout Erling Haaland, roasted the officials of his son's quarterfinal loss to England on Saturday in Miami.

As his son's friend and former teammate Jude Bellingham scored England's two goals in the 2-1 victory, the elder Haaland tweeted after the match: "Well done Bellingham and referee."

That, of course, is a direct dig to the officiating crew missing the ball hitting the camera cable before England's attack that led to the equalizer goal. If the VAR had caught the ball hitting the cable, England's goal would have been waved off, and Norway would have won the game at the end of regulation.

Well done Bellingham and referee.
