The team relocated from the Dalmar Hotel in Fort Lauderdale just one night after arrival, following player complaints about excessive noise from a nearby road and a construction site. An official complaint was made to World Cup organisers Fifa, who facilitated the squad's swift move within two-and-a-half hours to a new hotel closer to the Hard Rock Stadium, the venue for their upcoming match. Fifa agreed to cover the cost of 50 rooms and security at the new accommodation, while the Norwegian FA was responsible for any additional charges incurred for the upgraded facilities requested by the players. This hotel disruption follows an earlier challenge for the Norwegian squad, as an illness had spread among players since Sunday, though those affected are reportedly recovering ahead of their historic quarter-final appearance.
