Video: Ostigard becomes first Serie A player to score at the 2026 World Cup

Genoa centre-back Leo Ostigard became the first Serie A player to score a goal at the 2026 World Cup, contributing to Norway’s 4-1 win over Iraq.

There’s finally a Serie A goal at the World Cup, scored by Genoa defender Ostigard.

The 26-year-old netted Norway’s third goal with a towering header from a corner kick routine in a 4-1 win over Iraq last night.

It was Norway’s 2026 World Cup debut and marked Ostigard’s second goal in 39 appearances with his national team.
