Norwegian striker Erling Haaland posted on social media some instructions for his fans on Thursday: Google me.
Haaland, the Manchester United star who has scored seven goals for Norway so far during the FIFA World Cup, has more than 12.5 million followers on Twitter. For those who follow him and listened to his instructions, they were met with a lovely surprise.
One thing to do today… search my name on Google 😉

All they had to do is search his name and Google had a fun Easter Egg.
It was a perfect tribute to Norway’s Viking row at the FIFA World Cup with cartoon characters rowing on the bottom of the screen.

There is even a sound effect that offers an interactive, thumping drum sound before the “RO!” fans exclaim when doing the celebration.
This is an awesome way to embrace one of the biggest names in the sport right now while he competes on the global stage.
Haaland and Norway will face England at 5:00 p.m. ET on Saturday during the quarterfinals in Miami.
