Match

Sogndal run riot against Kongsvinger

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Sogndal

The unbeaten run reaches 11. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

The dugout

Ronney Onyango: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Sogndal have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Words exchanged at Sogndal

Even Hovland 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.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Sogndal

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Squad

A row about effort at Sogndal

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

Transfer targets

Sogndal rebuffed over German Onugkha

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Rodina have kept their man, and Sogndal go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Lūkass Vapne

At 23 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.

One of our own: Hakon Sorloth joins the Sogndal first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Hakon Sorloth is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

In brief
