A one-man rearguard from Sebastian Selin
There were 10 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Noah Sahsah, 21, steals the show — 7.69
Marked 7.69 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

The paperwork begins on Viljar Vevatne
A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Åsane have done the hard part with Viking, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Morten Bjørlo has a hand in both — 7.85
One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.85, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Words exchanged at Åsane
Morten Bjørlo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Nobel Tesfazgyi Gebrezgi was unplayable
Successful dribbles: 21. 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.

Stabaek take the points off Åsane
Beaten 2‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The manager makes an example of Kristoffer Barmen
“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.

Magnus Normann steps up from the Åsane academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Magnus Normann has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
