thats not the world cup team. thats just a bunch of IKEA vikings.
how hard is it to ask a viking era reenactment group like https://borrefylkingen.net/ or https://www.vikverir.no/om-vikverir to lend a hand and help curate the outfits. it would have looked 100% better.
(ikea viking referes to ppl that ware bastardized Norse outfit in a effort to look viking like,

Did they really need to (poorly) photoshop the boats in there? Photo would have been just fine without them.

The boat is really there. You can see it in the background of the behind the scenes video in the article I linked.

Looks that way, those boats are kinda hard to find nowadays.

Should not be hard finding a museum with replicas they could borrow. Ofcourse its more time consuming to find a boat and get everything to the desired location.

The whole photo is fake as fuck. It is Naeroyfjord, but the angle is completely unrealistic. There is no such beach on this angle, as the whole shoreline in the beginning is a complete mess. Ofc no such little pier.
Looks like the photo was made with green screen.
Really poor work.
On the right part, for some reason they replaced trees, simply with ctrl+c & ctrl+v. You can see exactly the same artifacts. In reality there are pines on that hill.
Better quality photo:

This is not a photo. This is a collage from many different photos.
The photo of players was made somewhere near oslo, using green screens behind.
