In the 12th end result it was 5-3 to Sweden. Excerpt of the text in the magazine Aktuell: " - Most of the second half stood out as a Swedish performance game, but 6 minutes before the final signal got Norway its third goal at Jann Sørdal, and the result, 5-3 in Swedish favor, shows that Norwegian football is in Progress. "Norway fell, but fell forward", was a striking Swedish characteristic. And at least it was one of the really big international days at Ullevål, with as much speed and excitement and good football that we haven't seen on this page of the war. ” The picture: The Norwegian national team before the match.
