No sign of nerves from Lamin Njie at 19 — 8.23
The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Lamin Njie did not need any: 8.23, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

A defender's afternoon for Jens Husebø
Defensive actions: 15. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

No hiding place for Kristoffer Halvorsen
