Match overview
Scotland and Norway drew 1-1 in a tightly contested Nantes fixture. Flo struck shortly after half-time before Burley levelled in the 66th minute. Both goalkeepers made crucial saves as neither side could force a winner, leaving Group A finely poised.
Trivia
Norway’s opening goal ended Scotland’s 4-match run without conceding in World Cup play. Burley’s equaliser was his first and only World Cup goal.
