Group A

Finland 1-1 Switzerland

Norway 4-3 Iceland

Switzerland left it very late to get the point they needed against Finland, to go through to the quarter-finals.

A goalless first half saw Sydney Schertenleib go close for the hosts as Anna Koivunen turned the shot away.

Swiss goalkeeper Livia Peng made a good stop to just about keep out a free kick deflected at the last moment.

With 15 minutes of the 90 to go, Viola Calligaris brought down Emma Koivisto in the box and Natalia Kuikka calmly converted from the spot to put the Finns in second place.

Into added time, the Swiss saved themselves as Geraldine Reuteler’s effort was turned in by Riola Xhemaili.
