It was already noted before the championship that Angola, with poor finances, would be forced to a short recharge on site in Japan. A 40 hour flight and only 18 hours before the first match. Far from being optimal given the eight-hour time difference.
- The first nights were hard. It is an eight hour time difference, so we still have problems. But we have our heart, Angola's star player Albertina Kassoma tells NRK.
After losing to both Serbia and the Netherlands and winning against Slovenia, victory is also needed against Norway to advance to the next round.
- I have focused mostly on our preparations, but it is obviously sad if this has affected Angola's results so far, says Norway's Silje Waade.
Norway has won all three matches they have played so far.
The Norway-Angola meeting is played at 12.30 and is broadcast in Viaplay.
