Despite the fact that it is more than 10 hours until the match starts and the temperature is almost 30 degrees, the red, white and blue queue winds for several hundred metres along Oslo's main street, Karl Johan. The goal: one of the big-screen screenings that will show the historic World Cup quarter-final against England.
Sitting at the front are Tinius Elven and Dennis Petersen. They took the train from Sarpsborg last night and have been queuing since quarter to six this morning.
It was obvious to come here. It's absolutely magical to experience this. You feel an enormous sense of pride following this team, says Tinius Elven.
“Haaland is unstoppable”
A stone's throw away sits Brian McCarthy with his wife Jan. They are from London but have travelled to Oslo on holiday. The trip has been planned for a long time, but when Brian realised they would be in Norway for the quarter-final, he packed his England shirt.
"Of course you feel a little lonely in this shirt, but it's also fun. Plus, all the Norwegians who have seen me have been really nice," he says.
Both agree that it will be a tough match that could go either way.
Norway has a good team and Haaland is more or less unstoppable. He will probably score goals against us too. We can only hope that we score more, says Brian McCarthy.
Understand the Swedes
One question that has engaged the Swedes is whether they should cheer for their neighbouring country or not. For many, it is obvious that Norway should succeed in the World Cup, while others think that a quarter-final will be enough. The Norwegian supporters in Oslo have taken part in the debate and there are divided opinions there too.
We have cheered for you at so many World Cups when we weren't there, now you can actually cheer for us, says Fredrik Økland, who has painted his moustache in the Norwegian colours.
Dennis Petersen has more sympathy for the fact that not all Swedes like Norway.
"I understand if you can't stand us. I don't think I would have stood you up to it, to be completely honest," he says.
All Norwegian fans seem to believe in victory tonight, but even if it were to be a loss, they promise to party anyway.
It doesn't matter, we're so happy to have come this far so people will keep going all night regardless, says Tinius Elven.
