The Norwegian team dominated the entire first European Championship match. With dribble raids, several giant chances, click-click games and double-digit number of shots on goal, there was never any doubt that Norway would get three points in the European Championship opening. – Norway makes a very solid and good match against an opponent who was weaker than I feared. But it was a fantastically good implementation of Norway with the conditions Northern Ireland gave us, says news expert Carl-Erik Torp. Northern Ireland did notice an ever so small hope when Julie Nelson reduced to 3-1, but the hope faded as quickly as it arose. Five minutes later, Caroline Graham Hansen was fielded after one of her many dribble raids in the match. Guro Reiten struck a 30 meter free kick home 16 minutes into the match. Strong first half The match opened with a few minutes of rufs from Norway, but then it was mostly about the red shirts. Ada Hegerberg had already had a great chance when Guro Reiten twisted the game and found Julie Blakstad alone on the edge of the 16-meter. The left-back slapped the ball in the nearest corner behind Burns. Then, just three minutes later, Norway was to be paid for the high pressure. Hegerberg stressed the goalkeeper, and Frida Maanum followed up by tackling the ball back in the field. Thus, the ball bounced to Hegerberg, who alone with the goalkeeper realized that Maanum was in an even better position to roll in 2-0. The Reds followed up by creating a flurry of chances, but the third goal did not come until Norway was awarded a penalty kick after a hand. Here Caroline Graham Hansen was icy cold. – She is a nightmare for those Hansen stands with a very special statistic against Northern Ireland. Now, after the fifth match, the 27-year-old has scored 9 goals against the green-clad. During periods of the match, Graham Hansen was almost unstoppable, as here after six minutes: Hansen was also named the match’s best player. news expert Carl-Erik Torp was also impressed by the Barcelona star: – When Caroline can challenge and get defenders as backs, she is a nightmare for them. What she does in that situation is what few players in the world, maybe no one, do, says Torp. The host nation is waiting On Monday comes what will be the biggest test for Norway in the group stage. England opened with a 1-0 victory over Austria on Wednesday, and now the two group favorites will meet in Brighton on Monday night. The news-broadcast match was sold out already in April.
