Norway kept their 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Championship campaign on track and moved to within two points of Group 5 leaders the Netherlands with an efficient home win against Estonia.
Comfortable win
Goals from Vadim Demidov and Aram Khalili were enough to give the hosts victory and the result means Estonia, who have yet to score a goal, stay rooted to the bottom of the section with no points. Norway, meanwhile, finish the year's fixtures with a three-point lead over third-placed Switzerland. The opening goal came just before half-time when Demidov headed home from a corner. Demidov was also involved in the second, laying on the chance for Khalili to finish ten minutes before full time.
