(Molde – Lilleström 3–0) Toothless Lilleström makes it easy for Molde, who constantly attacks Bran.
After the match, Lillestrøm coach Andreas Georgsson was disappointed with his team's performance against Molde. They are currently in eighth place.
“Losing a game like that, it bothers me a lot. It's a tough feeling and a big disappointment,” Georgeson told TV2 after the match, adding:
– In the first half we are cowards and scared. And negative. It doesn't work – so we have nothing left. We have to go out and come in all together.
The picture of the match reflected the reason for the LSK coach's disappointment. After twelve minutes of the match, Christian Eriksen topped the scoring statistics in the Premier League – along with Albert Gronbäck.
– They have a lot of quality, they have a lot of class. It was a one-way street. Molde looked like they were at their best, TV 2 pundit Yaw Amankwa said during FotballXtra.
Lillestrom showed another example of poor free play from the back when they missed the ball. That's for the man you'd rather not mess with.
Magnus Wolff found Ekrem Eriksen in the box, who scored his eighth goal of the season.

But it didn't stop there.
Just over ten minutes later, Martin Linnes fired a long-range shot from around 20 metres out. It hit the post and, unfortunately, the ball bounced off the back of goalkeeper Mads Hedinstad-Kristiansen and went straight into the net.

The overtaking continued. The victory was crowned when Linis easily passed to Mattias Fjortoft-Lovik, who put the ball the furthest across the entire pitch.
– It's always nice to score. It took a 'damn' long time with this VAR situation. I thought it was usual for me to receive this award, but luckily it went my way,' Mattias Fjortoft-Lovik told Channel 2 after the match.
As for the result, it was checked for offside – a check lasting almost two and a half minutes – due to the intense booing from the stands.
There were also new protests over VAR. Lillestrøm supporters were silent throughout the first half. For Molde, the Tornekrattet stadium was empty, as announced earlier this week.
