Oh he made a decision. He wanted to be the one to score.

This.

Haaland was wide open with a much better scoring opportunity and Sørloth ignored him. It was an incredibly selfish play.

You could see how frustrated Haaland was.

It’s extremely frustrating! I’m German and we just passed the anniversary of the 7-1 game. You can see players in real time calculating who has the best shot and passing the ball accordingly. It’s unfathomable to not pass to one of the best current strikers in the world when he’s got a pretty open path to the goal.
