New Zealand’s midweek match against Norway may well spark memories for Norwegian head coach Ståle Solbakken — especially if the game involves a penalty.
The international friendly will be only the second time the countries have met; the first was a 3-0 win to Norway in Brisbane in 1997, when they met during the Optus World Series.
Solbakken played in Norway’s midfield during the game, one of 58 caps for the national team he now coaches.
Reports say he was one of Norway’s best players on the day despite missing a penalty.
