Vålerenga fillerist Strømsgodset – keeps up with the medal fight – news Sport – Sports news, results and broadcasting schedule

Dag Eilev Fagermo and Vålerenga’s great form just continues. After beating Strømsgodset 4-0 at home, the Oslo club have now lost only one game in their last twelve games in the Eliteserien. – We are playing a good match, and after 4-0 it is not a crisis to go down a bit, Torgeir Børven told Eurosport after the match. The VIF striker was replaced at half-time. – We try to score, but it’s okay to save a little effort as well, he says. Of the last twelve matches, ten of them have ended in victory, while one match has ended in a tie. This means that despite a deplorable start to the season, they have every opportunity to win a medal in the Eliteserien, which also leads to qualification for the Serieligaen. The blue jerseys came out on fire against Godset, and two scores by Torgeir Børven followed by a double from Amor Layouni ensured a 4-0 lead at the break. In the second half, Vålerenga were not as dangerous to score, but both Tobias Christensen and Henrik Udahl could increase the lead for the home team. Bodø/Glimt is one of the competitors fighting for a top three position in the Eliteserien, and the northerners eventually won 4-1 over Lillestrøm in Åråsen. It happened after scores by Ulrik Saltnes, Runar Espejord, Hugo Vetlesen and Amahl Pellegrino. Saturday’s Glimt victory means that they move up to second place in the Eliteserien, while Lillestrøm, Rosenborg and Vålerenga are fighting for a place in Europe close behind.
