Kristine Minde (née Wigdahl Hegland; born 8 August 1992) is a Norwegian footballer[3] who plays for Linköpings FC of the Swedish Damallsvenskan, having previously played for Arna-Bjørnar in her native Norway.[4] She has represented the Norway women's national football team since 2011 and featured at the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup and UEFA Women's Euro 2013. In November 2013 she got married and took her husband's name, becoming Kristine Minde.

Club career

Born in Bergen,[5] Minde joined Arna-Bjørnar as a 14-year-old and developed into an important player at the club. After playing for Norway in UEFA Women's Euro 2013 she became a transfer target for bigger teams in Sweden and Germany. She was sold to Linköpings ahead of the 2014 Damallsvenskan season. Arna-Bjørnar did not reveal the size of the transfer fee, but said the extra income would come in handy.[6]

International career

At youth level Minde was captain of Norway's under-19 national team and played at the 2008 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[7]

Uncapped Minde was a late call-up to the Norway squad for the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, following Lisa-Marie Woods' withdrawal with a hip injury.[8] She made her debut at the tournament, in Norway's final group match; a 2–1 defeat by Australia.[9]

National coach Even Pellerud named Minde in his squad for the 2013 European Championships in Sweden.[10] In Norway's opening fixture, Minde put her team ahead against Iceland, only for Margrét Lára Vidarsdóttir to equalise with a late penalty kick.[11] Minde played 120 minutes in the semi-final victory over Denmark and 90 minutes in the final against Germany, as Norway finished with silver medals.
