Beaten twice in Senegal clash
Nyland registered two saves and allowed two goals in Norway's 3-2 victory over Senegal on Monday.
Analysis: Nyland was beaten twice by Ismaila Sarr from point-blank range, as the opponent faced little resistance in the box, leaving the keeper without much hope of preventing the goals. Nyland has made two saves and allowed three goals so far in the tournament. Up next, Norway will face France on Friday.
Concedes with little to do
Nyland made no saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win against Iraq.
Analysis: Nyland had little to do for most of the game, with Iraq's goal coming from a perfectly placed header that was beyond his control. Norway's backline did not perform to the level expected, as Iraq fired off 11 shots, only one fewer than Norway managed going forward, a result that raises some questions given the fixture was considered the more favorable one on paper. Up next is Senegal, who suffered defeat to France and will be chasing a positive result of their own to improve their qualification chances.
