Match

Still nobody has beaten Ranheim

The unbeaten run reaches 14. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Player ratings

Seydina Diop was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 22. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad

Tempers go at Ranheim

Famara Camara 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.

Squad

Words at Ranheim training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Villads Nielsen is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Jonas Pereira is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Ranheim has been clear about where Jonas Pereira stands, which is more than many ever get.

Player ratings

Mikael Tørset Johnsen stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.20 on the card, and the Ranheim support went home talking about one name.

The dugout

A promise honoured at Ranheim

Something was said to Christoffer Aasbak and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Ruben Bjorkan chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout

Sebastian Heredia-Randen does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Match

Ranheim march on in the cup

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

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Tage Haukeberg

Successful dribbles: 30. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Ranheim cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad

Storm Strand-Kolbjørnsen 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 Ranheim this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

A row about effort at Ranheim

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Villads Nielsen was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

Mikael Tørset Johnsen the difference as Ranheim beat Odd

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Mikael Tørset Johnsen. 2‑1 against Odd, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The terraces

Ranheim supporters have found a favourite in Jon Berisha

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Jon Berisha has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match

Ranheim are at home on the road

3 straight away victories. Sides that win away are usually sides that can defend and can counter, and the table has begun to reflect what those journeys have earned.

The dugout

Sebastian Heredia-Randen 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

A falling-out at Ranheim

Harald Martin Hauso and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Jon Berisha signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Jon Berisha commits to Ranheim for another 4 years.

Squad

A row about effort at Ranheim

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Gustav Mogensen was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

Jon Berisha 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.

Market

The Seydina Diop talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Ranheim know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

The dugout

The manager makes Christoffer Aasbak a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Ranheim. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

The small margins put Ranheim out

Out, 0‑0 to Kongsvinger, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Player ratings

Gjermund Åsen, 35, rolls back the years — 8.00

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.00 at 35, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 12 in, 20 out at Ranheim

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 12 arrived, 20 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market

Ranheim say no — this time

The offer from Kongsvinger for Elias Sandøy Myrvågnes 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.

Transfer targets

The paperwork begins on Mustapha Abu

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Ranheim have done the hard part with Egersund, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Player ratings

Jon Berisha runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Adrian Kurd Rønning

Ranheim asked and Kristiansund said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

Famara Camara falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Tempers go at Ranheim

Christoffer Aasbak 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.
