In its final warm-up match before the qualifying matches for the 2014 World Cup begin, Greece beat Norway 3-2 in Oslo.

Vassilis Torosidis, Avraam Papadopoulos and Costas Mitroglou scored the goals for Fernando Santos’s team

Brete Hangeland and John Arne Riijse replied for the Norwegians.

Greece was 2-0 up within 11 minutes but Norway came back into the game but Mitroglou’s second-half goal was enough to put the win beyond doubt. It was the Olympiakos striker’s first goal for the national team.

Greece begins its 2014 qualifying campaign on September 7 with a trip to Latvia. On September 11, it will face Lithuania at home.
