Glimt outclassed Linfield in the qualification for the Mesterligaen – news Nordland

The home team did not give up until the result showed 8-0 (8-1 overall) against the visiting Northern Irish. Thus, either Swedish Malmö or Lithuanian Zalgiris await in the third qualifying round for the Champions League. If the All Yellows from Bodø lose the rest of the matches in the qualifying rounds, they will now at worst end up in the group stage of the Serie Liga. A prize sum of NOK 30 million awaits. If, on the other hand, Glimt wins the doubleheader against Malmö or Zalgiris, they will go into the playoff for the Champions League. And should they make it all the way to the group stage in Europe’s biggest club tournament, a staggering NOK 174 million in prize money awaits. Early start and red card After struggling in the opposite match in Northern Ireland, the home team went out for a hundred in the return match at the Aspmyra stadium. Hugo Vetlesen made it 1-0 after just seven minutes. The pain got worse for Linfield after 20 minutes of play. Kirk Millar stopped the ball on the line, and was given a straight red card by the referee. The subsequent penalty kick put Victor Boniface in the goal. And against ten men it really came loose for Glimt. Amahl Pellegrino scored 3-0 four minutes later, before Ulrik Saltnes put in number four just before half an hour had been played.

Lars-Jørgen Salvesen was presented as the new Glimt striker after the transfer from Strømsgodset was in the works. The striker from Kristiansand has signed a contract until 2025 with the yellow jerseys, and is ready to play from next Monday. Despite three substitutions at halftime, Glimt did not seem to slow down. Substitute Runar Espejord scored 5-0 after 52 minutes, before Pellegrino scored the game’s second goal two minutes later. Right-back Alfons Sampsted hammered home 7-0 just over a quarter of an hour before the end, before Espejord completed the pulverization minutes before full-time. The 8-0 result is the biggest win Glimt has achieved in Europe. As you know, Glimt was 6-1 against Roma in last year’s group stage in the Serie Liga.
