What a moment for the young Norwegian defender!
Marcus Pedersen (25) has just netted his first senior international goal for Norway — and he couldn’t have picked a better time. The goal came during the 2026 World Cup as Norway continue their impressive campaign on the biggest stage.
The right-back, known for his solid defensive work and attacking overlaps, found the back of the net in style. It was a special moment not just for him, but for the entire Norwegian squad and their passionate fans watching around the world.

Why it’s extra sweet:
- First international goal
- On the World Cup stage
- Helping Norway push forward in the group stage
Pedersen has been a reliable performer for club and country, and this goal is the perfect reward for his hard work. Norway’s team spirit looks stronger than ever, and moments like this are what make the World Cup so magical.
Huge congratulations to Marcus Pedersen! What a time to score your first one for the national team.
