Norway resist in their own 22. Sweden still cannot go through, and that's a good point for Norway. Norway is sending back Sweden but the game is still on the wrong side of the pitch. |

| Half time. |
|
We now expect a response from Sweden. Sweden has a lot more to loose than just a game by not winning against Norway. Kick is given at 16:57 |
49': Norway is playing well keeping the ball and pushing Sweden. The ball is sent to touch and Norway catch the ball. |
16': Sweden is almost there... But Diessner is catching the kick and obtain a penalty that send Sweden back again. 18': Sweden has another chance to take the score back with a penalty at 30 meters. The score does not change. |
|
7-11 |
19' - Try [13] |
| Third bad kick from [13], the conversion hits to the goal post. No conversion. |
| 65': Norway get a nice lineout at 10 meters. Norway is at 5 meters when a knock on gives the ball back to Sweden who escape to touch. |
| 70': Sweden is at 10 meters after a line out - A nice maul will push Norway further before the ball comes out and is sent to the winger. The last pass is fortunately forward. |
|
7-16 |
74' - Try [10] |
|
7-18 |
75' - Conversion [21] |
Norway is breaking. Sweden attacks more often and faster than before Norway is penalised and Sweden choose the scrum at 5 meters. The scrum is pushing Norway behind the goal line, Number 8 take the ball to ground but ref sees a knock on that will mean the end of match. |
| Sweden win the 2011 Viking Tri-Nations. |
| Norway played very well today, and managed to face Sweden almost until the end. Norway has maybe a fitness issue that they must fix if they want to be able to hold them for 80 minutes, otherwise, we saw a better Norwegian rugby today, That's encouraging for the match against Denmark that will count double: both for European Nations Cup and Viking Tri-Nations. For both, the coming game will be to avaoid the last place. |
