Norway continued its 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup campaign with its final Group A match against the Philippines at Eden Park in Auckland on Sunday (on FS1 and the FOX Sports app).
After struggling to find its footing in its first two matches, Norway had no such issues against the Philippines racing out to a three-goal lead early at halftime and eventually winning by a score of 6-0.
Sophie Román Haug scored each of the first two goals for the Norwegians and collected her hat trick with a third in stoppage time late in the match. The impressive performance allowed Norway to overcome its slow start and advance to the Knockout Stage, something they have done in all nine of the World Cup appearances for their program. The opponent is unknown with more games to be played.
