Norway took the lead very early in the second half against Slovenia on matchday five of the Nations League group stage.
Haaland scored the goal in the 47th minute after a terrible mistake by the Slovenian defence. Norway cut out a pass made by a home player and the Man City made it 0-1 with a shot from inside the box.
He only needed a few touches of the ball to score on another weekend of international fixtures. With victory, Norway would have been assured of top spot in group 4 of League B.
Elyounoussi got the assist and Haaland scored his 15th goal of the season, 14 of them for Man City and 11 of those in the Premier League.
However, Slovenia turned it around and won 2-1 thanks to goals from Andraz Sporar and Benjamin Sesko in the 69th and 81st minutes.
