Match19 Aug 2026
The cup run ends for Kongsvinger
0‑1 against Lyn, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.
Squad24 Aug 2026
William Da Rocha stands alone
8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.
Market24 Aug 2026
Rasmus Christiansen is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Kongsvinger is pretending he will be back in the shirt.
Boardroom24 Aug 2026
Kongsvinger to lose Rasmus Christiansen for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Rasmus Christiansen has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
Viljar Vevatne stays at Viking as time runs out
A deal that was a phone call from completion at lunchtime was dead by midnight. Kongsvinger will try again when the window opens; Viking may not be selling by then.
Squad24 Aug 2026
A row about effort at Kongsvinger
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Sondre Norheim was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Viking tell Kongsvinger: Ola Visted is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.
Match22 Aug 2026
Lillestrom take the points off Kongsvinger
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
The dugout24 Aug 2026
No hiding place for Sondre Norheim
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sondre Norheim, and the manager let it.
