The fiasco for Norway is complete.
They lost the must-win match against Austria and are now eliminated from the European Championship.
Conditions were easy for Norway before the last group game against Austria.
Victory and then to the quarter-finals, were knocked out crosses or lost from the European Championship. Perhaps the Norwegians were moved by the gravity of the moment or the final 8-0 blow against England was left in their heads.
Because it was Austria that clearly opened with a shot across the bar after just over ten minutes. It got worse for Norway when Nicole Bella shook her head after 37 minutes 1-0.
– Here she explains why she won the shooting league in the Bundesliga, so it was ultimately controlled when she aimed her into the far corner, says TV4 expert Jonas Eidevall.
Norway excluded
In the second half, Norway continued to despair, it was difficult for them to create any goal-scoring opportunities and only had two shots on goal. Austria trailed, won 1-0 and are now ready for the quarter-finals.
Norway? They can go home and the question is whether Sweden captain Martin Segren, who has been criticized during the tournament, can keep the job.
I feel very sorry for the Norwegian players. I’ve never met a coach who hinders the team’s potential so much. A disaster, says NRK expert Carl-Erik Torp.
– TV4 expert Vicki Blume says: Neither offensive nor defensive is suitable for Norway.
The star did not give up
Superstar Ada Hegerberg never entered the match and was completely isolated.
– She is very much the same. She has to work on her own against three Austrians who are working very hard and it will obviously be difficult to play. Lotta Shilin says she’s nowhere near what we know.
In tonight’s second match, England, who had already won the group, beat Northern Ireland 5-0.
