Isabel Haugseng Johansen, girlfriend of footballer Erling Haaland, has been actively supporting Norway during the World Cup, joining in on the team's iconic 'row' cheer and even embracing the cowboy hat trend. Johansen shared her World Cup experience in a detailed account for Vogue Scandinavia, highlighting the unique rhythm of the tournament.

This journey, from Oslo to Times Square, has been a special part of the tournament for her.
