Match

Sarpsborg 08 march on in the cup

Valerenga are out and Sarpsborg 08 go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Market

Sarpsborg 08 say no — this time

The offer from Valencia for Mamour N'Diaye was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Player ratings

Michael Opoku runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Sarpsborg 08 sign Ole Enersen for $220.0K

The paperwork is done: Ole Enersen joins from Stromsgodset in a deal worth $220.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Squad

Peter Reinhardsen in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sarpsborg 08 this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Eyes on Michael Opoku again

The phone has started ringing about Michael Opoku again, and this time the name on the line is IK Start. Sarpsborg 08 are listening politely and promising nothing.

Player ratings

One of those days for Frederik Carstensen

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.18, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Jesper Gregersen

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 20 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Mamour N'Diaye

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market

Sarpsborg 08 turn down Valerenga for Eirik Wichne

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Peter Reinhardsen is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Sarpsborg 08 is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Daniel Karlsbakk

Successful dribbles: 29. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Daniel Karlsbakk stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Daniel Karlsbakk and Sarpsborg 08 agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Tempers go at Sarpsborg 08

Aimar Sher was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

GIF Sundsvall watching Ole Enersen

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Sarpsborg 08 have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Match

Sarpsborg 08 come up short against Stromsgodset

Stromsgodset left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Eirik Wichne gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Sarpsborg 08 lose Johannes Rogne Fjærvik

45 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

In brief
