The Norwegian soccer women saved a tie in overtime in Sweden after Frida Maanum put the ball in the net with the last kick of the evening. Thus, the Norwegian team gets a great recovery after a sour loss against Spain. – It was actually very nice. You never want to lose against Sweden. I think we can leave this match with a win, but of course it’s nice to get 3-3, says Maanum to news. In addition, the team’s big star, Ada Hegerberg, had to leave the pitch with an injury. – It goes really well. It’s classic that a muscle stretches, I’ve been out for a few months. It can happen, and I’ll go home and heal it. It will go well, says Hegerberg to news. She adds that she is not worried. – I know my body so well and there is no point in pushing any limits now. It will go well, she says. It was before the break that Hegerberg had to be replaced, after she sat down on the grass after a duel with a Swedish player. It turned out that she was struggling with her groin, and so she could not continue. – It is a solid downturn for Norway, said commentator Andreas Stabrun Smith. HAPPY ANNOUNCEMENT: Hegerberg reports to news that she is not worried about the injury she sustained against Sweden. Photo: Lise Åserud / NTB – Terrible shame for the Ada Lyon striker who went off the field for his own machine. – She immediately goes to her groin, but it looks like the ice pack is on her knee. And if it’s the knee again… Ada said here in an interview that she has dug deep to come back, and if she gets another blow now I feel terribly sorry for Ada. That is not what Norway needs now, they need a fit Ada, says news’s football expert Elise Thorsnes. She recently made a comeback in club team Lyon on March 25. Then she scored after only one minute as a substitute, and she was one of Norway’s two goalscorers against Spain in Ibiza. From before, Hegerberg has had several long-term absences from football due to injuries. The worst waiting time between two games was 625 days. It was Sweden who started best, and Barcelona star Fridolina Rolfö danced past the Norwegian defense and sent the yellow jerseys into the lead at Gamle Ullevi after just over a quarter of an hour played. – It will be too easy, commented Torp, who was unimpressed by the Norwegian defensive game. – We are not properly on. We don’t have eye contact with the ball handler, said the expert. Norway answered Norway answered the Swedes in the second half, and in-form Frida Maanum tipped the ball into the goal after a great attack up front.

The Swedes did not give up, and on the eve of the match they were to score 2-2, to the great cheers of the home fans. The Swedes continued to press, and in overtime Olivia Schough scored 3-2 for the Swedes. When it seemed that it would end in a Swedish victory, Frida Maanum made it 3-3 in the last second. – I think that if we get a chance, we can punish them. We can do that, and it’s great that it’s 3-3, says Maanum. Riise’s team had a tough game against Spain, where they eventually lost 2-4 in Ibiza. The meeting with the Swedes was the last training match before the WC in Australia and New Zealand. The championship is played from July 20 to August 20, so there’s still a while to go.
