Thorsnes concedes a silly free-kick and as Angerer takes it, the whistle goes! Germany are the European women's champions once again!

Hansen drags a 20-yarder wide when she had options. Her youthful decision making one weakness to an otherwise-impressive performance in likely defeat.

Norway pouring bodies forward but Germany remain well set-up.

FOUR minutes of added time for Germany to hold on or Norway to take us into dramatic extra time.

Final minute of regulation time and Germany look to counter, but a premature cross puts paid to that.

It's Maier once again getting the ball away in a high-pressure environment.

Hansen is sticking to her dribble-heavy guns, though, and wins a corner for the Scandinavians.

Norway's urgency, or even desperation, has increased at a steady rate since the second saved penalty. From a reliance on whacking the ball upfield, they now find themselves conceding silly fouls and trying - and failing - to wind up their opposing defenders.

Great work under pressure by the impressive Maier to clear a dangerous cross facing goal.

Christensen did not keep the armband for long. She hands it directly to her replacement, the experienced Leni Kaurin.

KESSLER! Should have wrapped it up, as she pokes a cut-back from the right byline onto the far post. That said, Norway's defending was almost submissively-hesitant.

Ten minutes left for Norway to stay alive in the final. They were pegged back with three minutes left by Denmark before winning the semi on penalties. Can they get on the other side of the last-gasp equation?

Thorsnes is not too pleased that she's penalised for a handball, adamant that she brought down the long pass into the Germany area with her shoulder.

Schmidt's first act is to win a corner, from which centre-back Krahn, of all people tries to hook an overhead kick towards target. It goes miles over.

And the Germans make a defensive change which sees Bianca Schmidt on for Laudehr.

Norway skipper Stensland hands the armband to Christensen and will be replaced by Ingbild Isaksen. She scored the winner against Germany earlier in the tournament.

Angerer took an accidental foot to the face in that situation, but she shakes it off after a quick spot of treatment and takes the goal kick.

CHANCE NORWAY! Sub Thorsnes almost capitalises on hesitation between Angerer and Bartusiak to try and lob a bouncing long ball over the outrushing keeper, but it goes wide.

Germany handily get the resulting free-kick away from danger.
