Norway is projected by many to turn heads in North America this summer, having thumped Italy twice on its way to a perfect qualifying campaign.

This is its first World Cup of the 21st century, having last appeared in 1998. Manager Ståle Solbakken was part of the previous roster to feature at the esteemed tournament, and now he‘s leading a group of players poised to challenge soccer‘s aristocracy across the Atlantic.

Huge tests lie ahead in Group I. Norway has the chance to prepare and settle into the swing of things, though, facing Iraq in its tournament opener on Tuesday. Led by former Australia manager Graham Arnold, the Lions of Mesopotamia were the last team to book a place at this summer‘s tournament, having qualified via the inter-confederation playoffs in March.

Iraq is back in the big leagues after a 40-year absence, with its first-ever World Cup point the primary objective.
