Norway made it three wins from three to remain top of Group I, with Israel second after coming from behind to see off Estonia 3-1 thanks to two goals from Dan Biton and Mohammad Abu Fani's penalty. Substitutes Franjo Ivanovic and Andrej Kramaric each scored twice as Croatia claimed a thumping 7-0 win in Gibraltar in Group L.
