The momentum has been disrupted for Norway as they are struggling to win before the Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. The team has managed only four victories in a year but only one has come against a higher-ranked nation. They have leaked 16 goals in nine friendlies played, the 4-1 and 4-2 defeats to Brazil and Spain respectively contributing to those numbers. Their last friendly also ended in a 3-3 spectacle with Sweden in April.
