Norway winger Signe Gaupset made the most of her first start at Euro 2025, scoring twice and creating two more goals as her side beat Iceland 4-3 on Thursday to make it three wins from three for the Norwegians, who had already secured top spot in Group A.
Gaupset, one of six changes from the side that beat Finland 2-1 on Sunday, cancelled out Iceland's opening goal by firing a low volley from a corner in at the foot of the right-hand post in the 15th minute, and 11 minutes later she fired a left-footed drive into the opposite corner to make it 2-1.
Gaupset heaped more misery on an Iceland side that had already been eliminated by teeing up Frida Maanum for Norway's third goal four minutes after the break, and she set up Maanum for another in the 76th minute.
Iceland battled bravely and managed to score again through Hlin Eiriksdottir in the 84th minute, then added a penalty when Marit Bratberg Lund was sent off in stoppage time to make it 4-3, but the Norwegians held on to finish top of the group with a perfect nine points.
