– It’s nice to win this year too. It was fantastic last year and it is also this year, says Hørte to news. Because when Karina Sævik’s shot was stopped by RBK goalkeeper Rugile Rulyte, it was Hørte who smelled the return first and scored the game’s only goal. That it was Hørte who would be behind it was almost written in the stars in advance. The woman from Oslo played for Rosenborg for three years – and kept a clean sheet when the Trønders won 1-0 in the cup final against Vålerenga last year – before announcing her transfer to the blue shirts this summer. There she helped win the series, played Champions League football in the autumn and now it topped off with the match-winning score in the NM final.

When the teams met in the final last year, she had to be helped off the court with a serious knee injury. One year later, she made her comeback when rowing in the 1-0 victory. After the match, Löfwenius Veum could let the tears loose. – It is completely indescribable. It is a wonderful. Being allowed to be with the girls again is the best experience I could have, says Löfwenius Veum to news. MOVED TO TEARS: Mimmi Löfwenius Veum crowned the comeback with cup gold.

It means the world to me, says a tearful Löfwenius Veum. The opening at Ullevaal was characterized by many tough duels and stops in the game. Little testified if we were to get a goal show at Norway’s national arena. Vålerenga has struggled a lot with injuries this season. Coach Nils Lexerød had something to think about when both Ylinn Tennebø and Janni Thomsen each suffered knocks and had to be patched up on the sideline before half an hour had passed.

And then I think we are a little too bad in front of goal, was Janni Thomsen’s analysis after 0–0 at half-time. – We started well, but got a little out of rhythm after the injuries. I miss a little intensity in what we do, said coach Nils Lexerød. He received an answer to the indictment. Led by national team player Karina Sævik, Vålerenga produced several good chances. The score also came after 62 minutes. HANDS?: VIF player Karina Sævik wanted a penalty after what she thought was a hand on Emilie Nautnes. Photo: Terje Bendiksby / NTB Janni Thomsen hit a cross and the fallout landed at Sævik. She tapped in with a quick shot, but RBK goalkeeper Rugile Rulyte saved the shot. However, Sara Hørte was fastest on the return and scored 1–0 against old teammates. Thus, the centre-back could celebrate his second straight cup gold, this time as a match winner.
