– What I’ve dreamed of – VG

– It means a lot to be back in the final. I am proud to be back with the team and this means everything. Today was not about one player, but about the whole team, says Nora Mørk.

She struggled to hold back tears in an interview with Ole Erevik from TV 3.

– This is what I dreamed of. I am very happy and proud to be in the final, because it cost a lot.

– What does this really mean to you personally?

– No, do we have to start talking about it? It means a lot, says Mørk, that he wants to avenge the defeat in the World Cup final in 2017 against France.

– Why are there some small tears?

– No, it has been tough and it has also been tough for the national team for some years, responds Mørk, who is playing his first championship in three years after the nightmare of injuries. Here you can see a bit of how he made an impression on the comeback:

After a perfect championship, undefeated Norway is set for the European Championship final, but after important victories in the group stage and main round, the semi-final against host nation Denmark turned into a thriller.

After a weak start in Norway, Denmark led by three half goals. Norway struggled to overcome an aggressive defense and Sandra Toft (31) was left like a wall in the Danish goal. The road to the final seemed long and difficult.

– It was a classic over-ignition. I am so incredibly happy to be able to turn it around and stay calm. I’m very, very happy now, says Stine Bredal Oftedal.

– This says it all about our team spirit. Now I am very relieved, she adds.

After the break, the Norwegian girls came up, thanks in part to a good Katrine Lunde in goal.

In the end, it ended 27-24 and the restructuring operation was completed. Norway is set for its 11th European Championship final in 14 attempts, but the first championship final in three years.

– It’s absolutely fantastic. We were unable to vote in any way before recess. This shows that we are good at fighting together, says Katrine Lunde after the game.

– This says it all about this team. There are winning projectiles in all of them. I think we have a sick team spirit and that shows up in this match here, says Skogrand about the switch operation.

Now France waits in the final. They played Croatia upset in their semi-final early Friday. Thus, Norway can take revenge for the final defeat at the World Cup three years ago.

Before the semi-finals, Norway had seven consecutive victories over Denmark in major championship matches, and 13 matches in total. The Danes beat Hergeirsson’s team in the last match of the main round of the 2012 European Championship. By then, Norway was ready for the semi-finals, while Denmark had no chance to advance.
