Norway made little work of Kazakhstan as Erling Haaland's hat-trick inspired them to a 5-0 victory in the Nations League on Sunday.
Without absent captain Martin Odegaard, Norway were led by Haaland at the Ullevaal Stadium, where the Manchester City forward scored his 25th career hat-trick.
Haaland took his tally of international goals to 38 in 39 appearances by scoring twice in the first half before completing his star turn in the 71st minute.
The 24-year-old has now scored 22 goals in all competitions for club and country this season and is the top scorer in the Nations League with seven strikes to his name.
