LILLESTRØM (VG) (Lillestrom – Valerenga 2-1) Canary crowd became more and more exasperated with Erling Knudtzon (25). But suddenly lay a goal and Knudtzon had provided LSKs first win over Valerenga on Åråsen in eight years.
– Wonderful delicious. This is the first time I have been the match winner against Vålerenga, although I have scored against them twice before, said a tired but happy Knudtzon VG.
Erling Knudtzon has never been a steady scorer. He focused on football rather late in life, and Lyn, he was used as a winger because of the great his speed. In LSK started forward work mostly as an emergency measure, and in many ways it’s probably still there, because LSK has no other points.
– I have not felt the criticism. But I’ve learned to avoid it too. I believe in myself, as have teammates and my coaches. That’s what matters, says Knudtzon VG.
The supporters are / have been frustrated. Not because Knudtzon not work hard or make a lot with his speed. But he scored a few goals.
VG LIVE: Rich minutes of the fight
Therefore made it extra good for two large, missed chances in the 2nd half, that Knudtzon sent Petter Vaagan Moens perfect post directly into the net as it remained 17 minutes of settlement on Åråsen. It was only the tip fifth league goals in 20 matches, but it did nothing for the former Lightning player that it came at just Vålerenga. There was also a vindication after Sarpsborg stop journey to Ullevaal in Thursday’s quarterfinals of the Cup.
– It is hard to say why it was heavily against Sarpsborg. But there is a slightly different feel and ignition in games against Vålerenga. Basically it’s a bigger game for both the players and the club, recognizing LSK coach Magnus Haglund as VG talking with him in the interview zone right after the game.
Caution Rekdal
Vålerenga came to Åråsen with seven wins and one draw in the last eight visits in the Premier League. And without their leading scorer Vidar Örn Kjartansson (19 goals) started Kjetil Rekdals Vålerenga in a cautious 5-4-1 (3-4-3 offensively).
– The aim was to stop edges of Lillestrøm, but it did not work. We tried this because of the players we had available, says Kjetil Rekdal to the media after the game.
LSK took hold, was the best and scored 1-0 after some stunning play. From Moryké Fofana Bjorn Helge Riise, posts on the fly to Petter Vaagan Moen melt LSK in the lead after just 19 minutes.
VIF did not come out the blocks before Rekdal let into the more familiar 4-4-1 -1, and Oslo’s pride had a couple of good chances towards the end of the half.
2. it started when the 18-year-old VIF lets Markus Brændsrød took responsibility, challenged in his first involvement, and beat in front of goal where Alexander Mathisen was. Keeper saved, but twice as old Morten Berre (39) put the rebound into the net.
In his Tippeligamål number 100.
It did well that it came to just Lillestrøm, and also received tens VIF supporters to take part in the celebration down by the bye-line.
The rocker
The rest of the battle hung in the balance, and it was Erling Knudtzon and LSK had the most chances. LSK striker had a chance after 54 minutes, but then it looked like he was playing with beksemsko.
Then he met not proper, after 71 minutes, before he finished perfect the perfect attack from Fofana Vaagan Moen to Knudtzon two minutes later.
And so it took LSK final three points from Vålerenga on Åråsen.
– We concede terribly easy targets for the future. There was nothing new LSK came today, says Rekdal.
