💥 Kosola opens the scoring with a superb strike

The only goal of the match was scored by Katariina Kosola in the 70th minute. After recovering the ball from an Icelandic turnover near the box, she advanced through the center before unleashing a right-footed shot across goal that the goalkeeper could only deflect: the ball ended up in the back of the net.

🟥 Red card for Antonsdóttir, decisive turning point (58th minute)

In the 58th minute, Hildur Antonsdóttir was sent off for a second yellow card after a dangerous challenge on Evelina Summanen, away from the ball. Reduced to ten players, Iceland lost their fight in midfield and their ability to create danger for the remainder of the match.


🛡️ Finnish defense: discipline and composure

Despite being outnumbered on paper, Finland showed great tactical solidity. Emma Koivisto and Natalia Kuikka stood out by neutralizing the main threats from the opposition. The Icelandic team did not manage a single shot on target in the second half, unable to break through the Finnish wall.
