Squad

Vegard Solheim damages knee ligaments — 115 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 115 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad

A fracture rules Spyros Abartzidis out for 133 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Haugesund will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Einar Fauskanger

There were 8 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.

Squad

Lars Ajer says Haugesund went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Only the photograph left for Tobias Bohinen

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Tobias Bohinen will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Haugesund the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Player ratings

Miika Koskela was immovable

23 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

In brief
