Article body
Norway were European champions in 1987 and 1993, FIFA Women's World Cup winners in 1995 and Olympic gold medallists in 2000 but it has now been a quarter-century wait for another major honour, though they were EURO runners-up in 2005 and 2013. They were knocked out in the group stage in the last two Women's EUROs, in 2022 following an 8-0 loss to England with a decisive 1-0 defeat by Austria, but a squad that can potentially boast Caroline Graham Hansen, Ada Hegerberg, Frida Maanum and Guto Reiten are still a match for anyone.
