a historic 2-1 victory against Brazil<\/a>, Team Norway is prepping for Saturday\u2019s quarterfinal while soccer fans are making their way to South Florida too, with many expecting a full Norwegian takeover.<\/p>\nNorwegian fans continued their celebration, following their team from New Jersey, and are ready to turn Miami into a piece of Norway.<\/p>\n
For those out in South Florida this week, be prepared to hear the famous Viking Row, a tradition fans take with them everywhere they go.<\/p>\n
While training is underway, players have also had the chance to enjoy what South Florida has to offer.<\/p>\n
Superstar Erling Haaland hit the links at Turnberry-Isle Country Club in Aventura and took the time to take pictures with young fans to create memories they\u2019ll never forget.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, it was all business. Team Norway took the field to practice in Fort Lauderdale to prepare for their biggest match to date.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we have to have the belief in ourselves. I think we\u2019ve shown the whole world that we\u2019re a good team, and as I\u2019ve said in football, anything is possible,\u201d said Martin Odegaard, Norway\u2019s midfielder.<\/p>\n
Off the field, many believe the Norway national football team is staying at the Four Seasons in Fort Lauderdale, while England is set to arrive in South Florida on Friday. <\/p>\n
A large amount of police and security presence can be seen outside the Four Seasons, including a command center. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe Sun,\u201d a report from a British tabloid, stated the team moved from its original hotel, citing construction noise and a busy street.<\/p>\n
Norway will have another training session on Thursday as they hope to be fueled up for their biggest test yet and a chance to keep their World Cup dream alive.<\/p>\n
The match will kick off at Miami Stadium at 5 p.m., Saturday.<\/p>\n
