Norway fans bring viral 'Viking row' to Times Square

Norway supporters turned Times Square into a sea of red on Sunday as they performed their now-viral 'Viking row' ahead of their team's World Cup clash with Senegal. The synchronized chant and rowing motion first gained widespread attention in Boston before Norway's tournament opener against Iraq and has since spread across bars, trains, boats and stadiums across the US. Fans gathered in the heart of New York City and even took the tradition onto a sightseeing boat around Manhattan, saying the celebration reflects their Viking heritage and gives them something uniquely Norwegian to share with the world. Norway can secure a place in the knockout stage with a victory over Senegal at New York New Jersey Stadium. #WorldCup2026 #Norway #VikingRow #FootballFans #NYC #FIFAWorldCup Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj0TppyxzQWm9JbMg3CP8Rg/join For more: https://www.cgtn.com/europe Social Media X: https://twitter.com/CGTNEurope Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cgtneuropeofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cgtneurope/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/cgtneurope Feedly: https://feedly.com/i/subscription/feed%2Fhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.cgtn.com%2Frss%2Feurope%2Frss.xml OTT iPhone: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1466868682 Apple TV: https://www.cgtnnow.com/help/using-the-apple-tv-app/apple-tv-apps Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgtnamericanow Android TV: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgtnamericanow Roku: https://channelstore.roku.com/en-gb/details/d62729a397c999f496fb208aaf19d782/cgtn-now Fire TV: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TM1H636/ Our Shows RAZOR: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvPxSZWJo7MVrWR7bLC45FQ Podcasts: https://www.cgtn.com/special/CGTN-EUROPE-PODCASTS.html #CGTN #CGTNLIVE #CHINANEWS #EuropeNews
