Klimkova out. We are dire.

Norway are ranked higher than the Ferns, and have one of the world's best female players in Hegerberg. They have a heap of players in English Women's Super League, and had 2 in the UEFA Women's Champions League Final (Hegerberg & another at Barcelona). Was also yet another away game for the Ferns.

As AV says in an article the Ferns should beat Wales next, who are ranked lower than them. Fail to win that game, then yes Klimkova will be under pressure.

But lets not forget the WWC next year will be at home. At home in a NZ winter, the Ferns could easily pinch a win over a Norway. It's the States, Matildas, Canada, Sweden, Japan and the like they probably end up getting knocked out by.

Edit - actually see Norway at 11th, ranked higher than both Australia (12th) & Japan (13th). So a 2-0 loss not unexpected, and the 2nd goal was conceded late on.

Ferns have been playing teams ranked above them exclusively of late. But yeah Wales they need to beat.
