Norway's national soccer squad, fresh from victories over Moldova and Belarus, will now have to beat the Czech Republic in order to qualify for World Cup action next year.
Norwegian coach Åge Hareide was relieved his team won't have to play against Spain. He thinks Norway has a better chance against the Czech squad.
A lottery on Friday determined that Norway will face off against the Czech Republic on home turf in Oslo on November 12, and then again in Prague on November 16. The team emerging from both matches with the most goals will be allowed to play in the World Cup in Germany next summer.
Norway beat Belarus 1-0 in Minsk on Wednesday but had qualified for the lottery after beating Moldova last weekend.
