23 August 2023 at 22:54 Midtsjø sank Molde in overtime Molde was on its way to a very good starting point in the Champions League play-off against Galatasaray. Then Norwegian Fredrik Mitsjø appeared and fixed a Turkish 3-2 victory. Three minutes into overtime, Mauro Icardi and Midtsjø came alone with Molde’s goalkeeper Jacob Karlstrøm. The Argentine played the ball unselfishly to Midtsjø who easily slotted home the winning goal. Thus, it is a tough task that awaits Molde in Turkey next week. It was Molde that got off to the best start and after just eight minutes, the Moldes shook Galatasaray: Martin Ellingsen sent Molde into the lead with a clear header. 20 minutes later, however, the game was turned on its head thanks to goals from Sergio Oliveira and Icardi. Galatasaray also had one more ball in the Molde net, but it was canceled after a VAR check. However, Molde fought back and Kristoffer Haugen equalized at 2-2 early in the second half, and that also seemed to be the final result. Then Midtsjø appeared in overtime. The winner of the doubleheader is ready for the group stage of the biggest club tournament in the world and can expect huge earnings. Last season, each team received at least NOK 183 million before a single group match had been played.
