Logs five clearances versus Senegal
Heggem won two of two tackles and had five clearances and one block in Monday's 3-2 win over Senegal.
Analysis: Heggem has been busy defensively across Norway's first two matches, recording three tackles and 11 clearances combined, though he was caught out positionally on the opening goal as Ismaila Sarr burst through on his side in Monday's 3-2 win over Senegal. Leo Ostigard replaced him late after that the center-back was dealing with cramps, and coach Stale Solbakken will decide whether to rotate Heggem to make him rest or keep him in the lineup for the decisive group stage finale for the top spot of the group against France.
Leads team in accurate passes
Heggem registered one tackle (one won) and six clearances in Tuesday's 4-1 victory versus Iraq.
Analysis: Heggem was chosen as expected ahead of Leo Ostigard to partner Kristoffer Ajer in central defense, continuing the partnership he had built in the recent two warm up games. He was a key figure in Norway's ball circulation, helping the team progress play out from the back, and led the side in accurate passes with 80. Defensively he contributed six clearances and one tackle, while winning three of the four duels he contested.
