Norway to meet Germany in semi

Norway went away with a 3-1 victory against neighbours Sweden when the last quarter final in Women´s Euro 2009 in Finland was played tonight. This means they will be up against Germany in the semi final on monday.

It was two goals late in the first half that made way for Norway´s victory, the first one being an own goal by Sweden. In the second half Norway scored a third goal before Sweden got a concellation at the end of the game.

This result shows that anything can happen in football. Sweden won their group undefeated, while Norway went through as third in their group. Still, there has been something missing in Sweden´s game although their defense was solid up til today. At the same time Norway has shown they have the fighting spirit and that is what is needed to win close games.
