NRK gave Odegaard a 5 out of 10 rating, before suggesting he may have “too much responsibility” in his international role.
‘The captain had to go down a lot to collect the ball on the outside of Kazakhstan’s structure as he was given the plays in between by those around him,’ they wrote.
‘He takes an enormous amount of responsibility. Too much responsibility?
‘Danced around with a couple of opponents at times, but wished he was more involved closer to the opposition’s goal.
‘Great opportunity after a pass from Horn Myhre after 61 minutes. Have seen him score on such occasions.’
‘Another good opportunity after 65 minutes after good wall play with Sorloth. Enormously involved and very active throughout the match, a lot almost.’
Meanwhile, Nettavisen deemed Odegaard their man of the match, but noted how some of Kazakhstan’s players targeted him on numerous occasions.
