Career

For the Norwegian national team, Pettersen debuted in 1994, scoring against Italy.

In the 1995 FIFA Women's World Cup held in Sweden, she scored three times to help the Norwegian team win its first World Cup, including the second goal in Norway's 2-0 win over Germany in the tournament final.

In 1999 when she was 22 she created a record in the Women's Euros when she scored four goals in a single match. The match was against Denmark at Lillestrom and the final score was 5-0.[1]

Overall, she scored 66 goals in 98 international matches. She retired in 2003, after competing in the 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics.[2]

In 2007, she rejoined Asker as the assistant trainer and began playing again, as a reserve striker. On 19 May the same year she took the record as the highest scorer in the elite Norwegian league, the Toppserien, with 147 goals to that date.
