– After the battle is over, so goes one of the players to what I would call attack on a VIF player from behind. I saw it not quite even, but she turns her back so that she falls forward and left, explaining VIF captain Rikke Tautra Dagbladet.

Jordal coach Andreas Granlund did not see the situation, but explains it like this:

He mentions that there was a situation in advance as unresolved tackle from behind .

– She is upset

– I think it should have been the expulsion of the situation, but it is the judge who judges, and we just have to accept what is happening there. Sport is emotion, but it should not boil over, says Granlund.

– Have you talked to your player after the game?

– She was upset for that it went so, it was she. It had gone in to her after the match. Sometimes it boils slightly above. As you say, it’s obviously much rivalry. When it happens like this, one must first look at her that was damaged, that it went well. So we need to talk to she who has done this.

– We send at least one type, or perhaps verbal, an apology from us Vålerenga. We must respect each other, says Jordal coach.
