Haaland played the full 90 minutes in the shock defeat

Erling Haaland was booed by Norway fans after refusing to sign autographs.

Haaland played the full game as Scotland came from behind to score two late goals and continue their 100 per cent record in the Euro 2024 qualifiers.

The Norwegian scored his first goal in five games after converting from the penalty spot but it wasn’t enough as strikes from Lyndon Dykes and Kenny McLean leave Norway with an almighty task to qualify for their first major international tournament in 24 years.

As fans waited to greet him outside of the Ullevall Stadion in Oslo, the 22-year-old instead opted to ignore those wanting a photo and autograph to head straight on the team bus.

Incensed by what they had seen, those who had stayed behind then began to boo him after it appeared that he wouldn’t be returning and the bus drove off.

Following Manchester City’s treble-winning exploits the forward has been celebrating alongside many of his teammates in recent days.

He was one of several players to jet to Ibiza for a night of partying before returning the following day to take part in the victory parade celebrations with the rest of the Man City fanbase.

That evening, Haaland was spotted wearing silk pyjamas with Jack Grealish as they entered a nightclub to continue the party.
