Glimt took over the top of the table after a hard-fought victory against Godset – NRK Nordland

The decision came after 74 minutes played in the spring sun at the Aspmyra stadium in Bodø.

The Danish midfield jewel Albert Grønbæk trudged into the field, but lost the ball in a duel with Herman Stengel.

The ball was suddenly free in the field when the Narvik player Håkon Evjen appeared.

He knocked the ball up at an angle from 13-14 meters – and ensured the only score of the match.

– It was a nice score, but the most important thing was that we got three points, says match winner Håkon Evjen to TV 2 after the match.

The victory, combined with the fact that Molde lost 3–1 away to Sandefjord, means that the Bodøværings occupy the top of the table with 16 points from the first six games.

In addition, they have played one game less than Brann and Molde in the places behind.

But already early in the match, the home supporters got a taste of the joy.

After eight minutes, left-back Fredrik André Bjørkan took the back of his thigh and signaled that he had to be replaced.

In came the Danish Adam Sørensen.

The rest of the first half was devoid of chances, and the aforementioned Evjen came closest with a finish to the side for a goal.

Further into the second half, Godset had several chances, and both Logi Tómasson and Gustav Valsvik were able to equalize for the Drammen with a little more efficiency.

Five minutes into overtime, Valsvik could have punctured the Glimt party with a powerful header after a corner, but Glimt’s goalkeeper Nikita Haikin was able to save the end with a masterful save.

– It is a tough team that is difficult to face. It was primarily important that we kept a clean sheet and got three points, says Haikin to TV 2.
