OSLO (Reuters) - Goals from two Alexanders, Tettey and Soderlund, set Norway on course for a comfortable 2-0 win over Malta in their Group H Euro 2016 qualifier in Oslo on Saturday.

Defender Even Hovland rose highest to meet Stefan Johansen's corner in the 19th minute. His header was blocked, as was Alexander Tettey's shot but the ball rebounded onto the sole of his boot and flew into the net to give Norway the lead.
