Sophie Roman Haug scored twice while Emma Koivisto helped Finland win the Pinatar Cup in Tuesday’s women’s international fixtures.

Koivisto played the whole of the tournament final in Spain as her country defeated Jenna Clark’s Scotland in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw. Clark also clocked up 90 minutes in a contest that saw the Finns prevail 5-4 on spot-kicks.

In the UEFA Women’s Nations League, Roman Haug grabbed a double as Norway beat Croatia 5-0 to wrap up an 8-0 aggregate success in their promotion-relegation play-off.

Elsewhere in the Nations League, Yana Daniels was an unused substitute in Belgium’s 5-1 victory over Hungary (10-2 aggregate).

In Dublin, Leanne Kiernan played the opening half of the Republic of Ireland’s 2-0 friendly defeat against a Wales side for whom Ceri Holland was sent on from the bench in minute 64. Reds captain Niamh Fahey was an unused sub for the hosts.

Mia Enderby, meanwhile, featured for 78 minutes as England U19s came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with their Norway counterparts.
