Norway U21 and Switzerland U21 will kickstart their 2023 UEFA Euro U-21 Championship when they square off on Thursday.
The Norwegians enter the tournament after a 1-1 draw against Scotland in a friendly last week. They progressed through Bryan Fiabema’s 31st-minute strike, while Tommy Conway equalized from the spot in the 79th minute.
Meanwhile, Switzerland went down 3-1 against Germany despite taking the lead. Dan Ndoye broke the deadlock in the fifth minute, but goals from Kevin Schade, Jessica Ngankam and Nelson Weiper helped the Germans overcome the deficit.
Norway qualified for the Euros as winners of Group A in the qualifiers, taking 24 points from 10 games. Switzerland finished second in Group E with 23 points, enough to automatically qualify as the best second-placed team.
The two sides were drawn in Group D along with France and Italy.
