Diplomacy lesson for Norwegian booters


Norway's national squad are to be given lessons from the country's diplomatic chief, just two days before their next Euro 2008 qualifier against Malta.

Norway play Malta here on Saturday but Jonas Gahr Stoere was Thursday due to talk to the squad about "questions on international news, Norway's international image and sport as a medium of union amongst nations," the Foreign Affairs Ministry said in a statement.

The meeting, which is closed to the press, was the idea of the Norwegian football federation.
