Euro 2022 Group A - Norway vs Northern Ireland as it happened

Check out our in-depth match report below, now live on our website.

Norway send out a statement to the competition favourites with a comprehensive victory over Northern Ireland. Despite the one-sided result, it's a night to remember for Kenny Shiels's side thanks to Julie Nelson, who scored her country's first-ever goal at a major tournament.

Graham Hansen looks to put the icing on the cake but shoots wide of Burns' near post.

Reiten looks for her brace but shoots over from inside the box. Norway really ought to have more than just the four goals to show for their endeavour tonight.

That will be Blakstad's last contribution as she's replaced by Josendal.

The run of Blakstad is picked out with a long ball over the top, she holds off McFadden and tries to pick out Hegerberg with a cross - but there's Burns once again to smother.

Aside from the opening goal, Burns has been superb between the sticks for Northern Ireland tonight, and she's alert again to keep out Saevik's effort from close range.

Bergsvand takes the place of the excellent Mjelde in defence.

Another sub from Kenny Shiels as he replaces Wade with Emily Wilson.

Caitlin, sister of Kirsty, comes on to replace Magill.

Magill has hurt her knee and looks in a lot of pain. She's not going to be able to continue, and, in fact, has to be helped off the pitch. This is a real shame.

A fan favourite, the Northern Ireland fans make their appreciation known for Furness as she's replaced by Kirsty McGuinness.

Norway, whose next opponents are England, continue in their relentless hunt for goals. Graham Hansen's corner is punched by Burns as far as Saevik but she can't keep her shot on target.

Hansen finds Retien inside the box and she squares it for Hegerberg who slots it home. But the flag is up and Norway's celebrations are cut short.

Vilde Noe Risa, Karina Saevik and Tuva Hansen replace Eikeland, Maanum and Sonstevold.

Rebecca Holloway takes the place of Burrows.

Oh wow.

Hegerberg goes to ground under pressure from Magee as she attempts to latch onto Reiten's through ball. The referee has a great view but says no penalty! Replays show it was the right decision.

Magill gets to the byline but her cross is easily cleared by the Norway defence.
