– It’s going to be tragicomic. This is what the general manager of Sandefjord Football Club, Espen Bugge Pettersen, says. The team from the whaling town wanted to cancel the match because the plane was canceled due to the strike. But the bus ride from stadium to stadium is 8 hours and 42 minutes long, and the limit for the Norwegian Football Association, including rest time, is nine hours. Thus, there will be a fight, writes NTB. – The players make the best of it and are prepared for battle. You get up tonight and get to sleep and get ready. But we are a little worried about the return if there is a similar curl. Espen Bugge Pettersen says the players are now on their way by bus to Trondheim.

In addition, Sandefjord must stay at a hotel in Stjørdal tonight. – We will be at Scandic Hell, so then we will spend the nine hours, says Bugge Pettersen who had hoped for a little more understanding from NFF. – Set for a match – We are set for a match, coach in Byåsen, Erik Selnæs. He still has a great understanding of Sandefjord, and believes that it should not have been a problem to cancel the match. – For us, it had had nothing to say. There are very many available dates. It’s just stupid. news has tried to get in touch with the competition director of NFF, Nils Fisketjønn, so far without success.
