Alejandro Lago and Mikael Dorsin are, like many of their Norwegian teammates at Rosenborg, going to be busy representing their respective national teams for the next couple of days.

Lago will be trying, together with Alvoro Recoba, Diego Forlan, Pablo Garcia and Diogo to get Urugay safely through the World Cup playoff matches against Australia. The first match will be played at home in Montevideo on Saturday while the second game will take place in Sydney on Wednesday.

Dorsin is on his way to Seoul where Sweden will play a friendly match against South Korea.

Per Ciljan Skjelbred and Michael Jamtfall were playing when the U18-national team played their last EC qualifying matches. But a 6-0 win against Malta, together with a 0-1 loss against Cyprus and a 1-4 defeat for Israel was not enough to secure a place in the tournament.
