Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Molde FK gets underway.
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kristoffer Haugen made 83 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 7' GOAL! Leke James scores on 7.
  • 12' It’s high time Erling Moe made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 17' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Tobias Thomsen suffering a number of foals already.
  • 22' Molde FK is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 27' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.

  • 31' Leke James with the second goal in the match!

  • 56' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
