Solveig Gulbrandsen: Mother and Midfielder

Norway international Solveig Gulbrandsen tells Caroline Rigby about life on the road at the Women's World Cup with her children.

Despite describing playing at the tournament as "a memory for life" the midfielder and mother of two admits that she wouldn't be representing her country if she couldn't have her children with her as it would be "too long to be away".

Some national sides don't allow children to be with the team but Gulbrandsen hailed Norway's choice to as "good for the girls who want to play soccer longer"
