Petter Northug was for over a decade the great arch-enemy against the Swedes in the cross-country tracks and that rivalry perhaps peaked when he drove home four World Cup golds in Falun in 2015.

Today he stood at the sideline at Ullevål and saw Erling Braut Haaland lower Sweden for the second time in a week in the Nations League, in the 3-2 victory.

The 21-year-old has now scored four goals in two international matches against Sweden.

Northug, who works for TV2, was then present when the TV channel interviewed the attacking star at the sideline after the win.

On the way to the microphone, the former ski king met Haaland, went down on his knees, abdicated and said that the football player is now Sweden's new arch-enemy.

- Now I hand over the baton to Erling Braut Haaland.

Good luck !, he says on TV2 and adds.

- Erling is one in a million - he has everything.
