Haaland's early exit raises fitness questions before Liverpool match

Erling Haaland asked to come off around the 67th minute of Norway's match against Portugal, drawing attention to his fitness before Manchester City's meeting with Liverpool. BongdaPlus reports that he appeared uncomfortable but walked off unaided and was replaced by Jorgen Strand Larsen. At the time of the article, the Norwegian federation had not announced an injury diagnosis. City still needed to assess him on his return, so the substitution alone did not establish that he would miss the next match.
