Niklas Sandberg looked set to be the big hero when he sent Viking into the lead in extra time, but Raufoss hit back for the fourth time when Kodjo Somesi scored the equalizer in the second extra time. – Completely wild conditions. Herrefred, it doesn’t get nicer than that, commented Alexander Schau at the cup live on news. In the penalty shootout, Raufoss had a secret weapon: goalkeeper Ole Kristian Lauvli proved to be a world-class shot stopper and saved the Vikings’ first two penalty kicks. Thus, Raufoss are ready for the quarter-finals of the cup and Lauvli has probably secured free pockets at Toten for the rest of his life. JUBILEE: Raufoss are ready for the quarter-finals of the cup. Photo: Frederik Ringnes / NTB – It was absolutely raw, I think it’s the best feeling I’ve ever had on a football pitch, says the penalty hero to news after the match. – How was it to save so many penalties? – When we take first, then second, and then we score in addition, then we realize that things are going our way. It’s delicious, says Lauvli, clearly pleased. Who Raufoss will meet in the quarter-finals will be clear after the bill at 21.30 – We’ll take anyone, if we’re going to go all the way, then we have to beat the best, says Raufoss coach Jörgen Wålemark. – An absolutely perfect “Panenka” Viking took a commanding lead when Harald Nilsen Tangen was brought down in the penalty area and Nicholas D’Agostino was safe from eleven metres, but it was not the only or best penalty goal of the match. Because when Loris Mettler stood up after Andreas Helmersen received a penalty kick, it was to be the highlight of the match. The Swiss midfielder went for a “Panenka” penalty and Viking goalkeeper Arild Østbø almost got up and saved the shot, but had to watch Mettler cheer in the end. – An absolutely perfect “Panenka”, commented Vålerenga player Christian Borchgrevink in Cupen Live on news. In the second half, many Vikings thought the match had been decided with a wonderful free kick from Sander Svendsen, but the Toten crowd still had many more goals in store. Filip Brattbakk equalized first, before Niklas Sandberg responded just four minutes later after a lovely Viking counterattack. – Crazy game But the hosts from Toten turned the game around in the last half hour of regular time and secured extra time when Andreas Helmersen scored the 3-3 goal four minutes before the end. – It’s a completely crazy match. A magnificent football match, regardless of whether Raufoss concedes three goals at the end here, they can be very satisfied with this match. A fantastic game by Raufoss, Schau said of the equalizer. Both teams scored there and the match went to a penalty shootout. Mettler, who scored with a cheeky “Panenka” penalty earlier, chose a different solution in the penalty shootout, but the result was the same. And the jubilation continued at Toten when Ole Kristian Lauvli saved Niklas Sandberg’s penalty. Lauvli soon gets free pockets at Toten for the rest of his life after saving the Vikings’ second penalty as well. Then it didn’t matter that Viljar Vevatne scored, because Aridon Racaj became the big hero with his goal.
