Brattbakk on par with Ivers

The 1-0 goal against Lyn was Harald Brattbakks 158th top league goal. He now is on par with RBK legend Odd Iversen.
158 GOALS: Harald Brattbakk has reached Odd Iversen on the Topscorers of all time-list, and was well pleased.

Brattbakk did however settle with 223 matches - Ivers needed one more match to do the 158 goals. The RBK forward, normally very reliable in front of the opposition's goal, has struggled a bit this spring - but the record goal came:
Harald Brattbakk got a clever pass from Christer Basma, tricked Steven Lüstu so he skid and fell, before hammering the ball into the net. And so the third goal of the season, and the 158th in the carreer, was secured.
"Really, I haven't been worried. The goals come as a result of a team that functions well. Today we were brilliant. Especially our first half was close to perfect," Brattbakk said to local Trondheim newspaper Adresseavisa after the 2-0 victory at Ullevaal.
Now, only Petter Belsvik and his 159 hits is in front of Brattbakk on the much honourable list. We expect two goals against Brann, Harald Martin! ;-)
PS! Ten of Brattbakk's goals came in the 1993 season when he was lent out to Bodø/Glimt.
