The 0-8 loss in the European Championship against England on Monday night is the biggest loss in history for the Norwegian women’s football. Especially before the break, Norway was terrible and was below 0-6 after the first 45 minutes. «History’s worst match management». Several are now critical of the fact that national team manager Martin Sjögren did not take action earlier. – It’s sad to watch. I think the formation and withdrawal have been missed. It is 6-0, it must be possible to make a move during these 47 minutes, commented news expert Elise Thorsnes. TV 2’s expert Yaw Ihle Amankwah summed it up like this on Twitter: “History’s worst match management”. He justifies it in the following way to news: – I am at the stadium and sitting right behind Sjögren, and that he allows the first round to be played that way here, without taking action, without making any formation changes or game changes. Or really concrete, anything, is to me completely inconceivable. And it is outright neglect of service by Sjögren. Do you trust Martin Sjögren as Norwegian national team manager? Yes No Uncertain Show result – Should have happened former National team manager Martin Sjögren made one change during the break, put in Guro Bergsvand and took out Karina Sævik, and at the same time switched to a five-back line. Still, England scored twice more. – I think there are sensible moves that are made after the break with that formation change. But it is something that should be obvious to anyone who has set foot on a coaching course, that that change should have happened after a quarter of an hour. Not after 45 minutes, Amankwah believes. To news, Sjögren says the following when asked why the grip did not come sooner. – We waited for the break. When to apply the emergency brake? It is uncertain whether it had stopped the bleeding in the first place, the Swede answers. When 6-0 was a fact, the despair from the Norwegian players shone. Some looked down at the grass, others waved their arms. Then they trudged off the field. At the same time, “Football’s coming home” resounded from the home crowd. Critical Arsenal manager Jonas Eidevall, who is the manager of Arsenal’s women’s team, also criticizes Sjögren’s match management. Eidevall says to the BBC: – I am surprised that Norway has not changed anything. England played them to pieces and the coach looked paralyzed, Eidevall believes. news met assistant coach Anders Jacobsen during the break. – Why was no action taken at the break? – We have made several moves, we can only state… said Jacobsen before he interrupted himself. – We must start by apologizing. The measures we have taken have not been well paid for. We have done certain things that we talked about not doing. There we are now very, very self-critical that we have not done it, quite simply. Now we will try to help in another way. We will switch to five at the back, to get better control of the inner corridors that we know England are looking for, Jacobsen told news. How far will Norway go in the European Championships? Final Semi-final Quarter-final Breaks out in the group stage Show result The biggest loss in history The changes, combined with a victory-proof England, meant that there were “only” two setbacks in the second half – but there could have been more. The European Championship match was still written in block letters – with a negative sign – in the history books for the Norwegian women’s national team. Norway’s biggest loss in the European Championships was 0-4 for Germany from 2009, but Norway’s biggest loss in a championship was 0-5 for China in the World Cup in 1999. The biggest Norwegian loss ever was 7-0 for the Netherlands last year. All this is history after an 8-0 loss to England in the European Championships.
