Norway became the first team to reach the knockout stages of Women’s Euro 2025 after grinding out a 2-1 victory over a courageous Finland. Caroline Graham Hansen’s late winner in Sion broke Helmarit hearts after Oona Sevenius had cancelled out Eva Nyström’s unfortunate early own goal. Switzerland’s 2-0 win over Iceland in the late game sealed their passage into the quarter-finals.
It was Norway’s experience that eventually told when their decorated vice-captain struck in the 84th minute against the run of play.
