We’ve got a match between Norway and the Philippines on our hands which will kick off on Sunday. The final game of the World Cup group stages will take place at Eden Park.
After the second round of Group A, Norway are currently number four on one point, while the Philippines have three points as number three.
Norway enter their final round of the group with a very clear target. Having claimed just one point so far, they need a win; otherwise, it’s bye-bye and see you next time. The Philippines are still optimistic about getting through to the next stage after picking up three points from their first two outings. A second win in the World Cup tournament would see them reach the knockout stage.
