Nyland on Corden Show Talks Norway's Illnesses Ahead of England

On Tuesday, Ørjan Nyland joined James Corden on the American talk show to discuss Norwegian fans, the Brazil match and media chatter before the quarter‑final against England. He confirmed that the squad has indeed suffered from illness: Marcus Holmgren Pedersen was omitted from the Brazil squad, Jørgen Strand Larsen had a cold before the opening game against Iraq, Julian Ryerson was treated for an injury early in the Senegal match, and several support staff reported coughs and hoarseness.

Nyland noted that the team’s doctor is very busy but that they are doing their best, and he expressed confidence that Norway will be fully rested for the England clash. Doctor Ola Sand added that there are no new cases beyond the known ones and that everyone who appears contagious is keeping distance and wearing masks. Both Erling Braut Haaland and Pedersen have previously appeared on the show. forestarrow.rest
