Haaland's song is Norway's most popular

A remix of the 2016 song "Kygo Jo" by Norwegian DJ Kygo, featuring singer Lyng, is currently topping Spotify's Top 50 chart in Norway. The song was originally released in the summer of 2016 by the duo Flow Kingz, with singer Lyng also contributing vocals. Lyng is now better known for his achievements on the football field, as he is Norwegian striker Erling Braut Haaland.

Kygo had pledged to release a remix of the song if Haaland scored against Brazil in the World Cup Round of 16 match. He followed through on this promise after Haaland scored twice in Norway's 2-1 victory. The remix is now at the top of the charts.

The duo Flow Kingz consists of Norwegian footballers Erik Botheim and Erik Tobias Sandberg. Neither has reached the same heights in football as Haaland. Botheim plays for Malmö in the Swedish league, while Sandberg plays for ÍA in Norway's Best deild karla. The song was released by Botheim, Sandberg, and Haaland during a U-17 national team assignment for Norway.

Haaland will be playing for Norway against England in the World Cup quarterfinals. Botheim and Sandberg will be watching the game on television or from the stands in Miami. The music video from 2016 can be seen below.
