Match

Lyn come from 3 down to beat Stabaek

At 3 goals adrift this was a formality, and the formality lasted right up until it did not. Lyn found something the first half had given no notice of, and Stabaek could not hold what they had.

Player ratings

A brace, and Anders Bjørntvedt Olsen takes the afternoon — 8.93

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Anders Bjørntvedt Olsen provided it, and the 8.93 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings

Both of them Andreas Hellum's — 8.89

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.89, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Brage Hylen puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Lyn, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Julius Skaug is on his way

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

Squad

Tempers go at Lyn

Mads Sande 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.

Match

Anders Bjørntvedt Olsen sends Lyn past Stabaek

It finished 4‑3, and it was Anders Bjørntvedt Olsen’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Lyn.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Brage Hylen

At 21 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

Mathias Johansen makes it 200

200 times in these colours, in all weathers and under four or five different managers. That kind of service is quietly disappearing from the game.

In brief

  • The dugout No hiding place for Didrik Fredriksen
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • The dugout A promise honoured at Lyn
