Marked for Ylldren Ibrahimaj

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Lillestrom

Fredrik Gulbrandsen 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.

Match5 Sep 2026

6 unbeaten for Lillestrom

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation Lillestrom did not have in the autumn.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Words at Lillestrom training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Filip Ottosson 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.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Daniel Bassi is the division's best young player this month

At 21 he has spent a month being better than everybody his age in the league, which is a different and harder thing than one good afternoon. Lillestrom will try very hard not to make too much of it.

Squad7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Ylldren Ibrahimaj

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Ylldren Ibrahimaj, and the manager let it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Daniel Bassi

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market7 Sep 2026

Still no ink between Lillestrom and Stian Kristiansen

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Lillestrom, another week without a signature from Stian Kristiansen.

Match5 Sep 2026

No goals between Lillestrom and Sarpsborg 08

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. Sarpsborg 08 will be the happier side with the point.

Market7 Sep 2026

Stian Kristiansen runs his contract down

4 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Lillestrom money.

Match12 Aug 2026

Lillestrom march on in the cup

Aalesund are out and Lillestrom go through, 2‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Both of them Felix Vá's — 8.32

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.32, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market17 Aug 2026

Stian Kristiansen is on his way

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

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Stian Kristiansen has agreed to leave Lillestrom for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Fredrik Gulbrandsen 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 Lillestrom this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Filip Ottosson 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.

Match15 Aug 2026

Lillestrom find a way past Odd

Odd made Lillestrom work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

Lillestrom supporters have found a favourite in Camil Jebara

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Camil Jebara 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.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Camil Jebara was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.13. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
