Fredrikstad - Rosenborg 5-1
By Håvard Lindheim, 5 August 2005, 14:13
Rosenborg was run over before the break, and never managed to catch up with Fredrikstad, whose lead was just too big.
Tonight's game was done at half time: FFK had a 3-0 lead, very deserved, after having ran over a miserable RBK team with no guts, no will, and no effort.
"We stood sleeping on all Fredrikstad's three goals in the first half. It was a period where we were totally overrun, we just have to admit that," Per Joar Hansen told broadcaster Canal+.
Errors from single players were again the defeating factor.
1-0 came after the RBK defence couldn't clear a pass from the left. It ended at Dagfinn Enerly, who was given both time and room by Mikael Dorsin.
Enerly was involved in the 2-0 goal as well: FFK was given a free kick at 16 metres, and Enerly rolled the ball over to Raymond Kvisvik. Totally unmarked in the box, he could send the ball to Øyvind Hoås, who steered the ball past Espen Johnsen.
3-0: FFK free kick from the left. Johnsen runs out to box the ball away. Hits Raio Piiroja's head instead, and he heads the ball into the empty goal.
4-1: Enerly hunts a ball that is heading out, next to the goal. Johnsen messes up, and fouls his old team mate inside the 16, clumsy and unneccessary. Penalty and goal.
5-1: Fredrik Winsnes clears a FFK counter attack, and gives the ball to Vidar Riseth. He misses the ball, and Mihaly Toth scores on an open goal after Johnsen saved the first shot from Simen Brenne.
"The personal errors have followed us throughout the year, and the goals we let in are too simple. We must get rid of this, because we don't win many games if we continue like this," Roar Strand states.
Strand was, early in the second half, a part of the situation that gave the evening's best picture of Rosenborg anno 2005: Alexander Ødegaard hammered away a volley shot that hit the post. The rebound ended between Strand's feet, and in front of a wide open goal he almost fell over the ball! Clumsiness and bad margins!
RBK was however better after the break; ran the game and created chances. But the goal didn't come until the 69th minute, when Frode Johnsen copied his Sunday score, heading an Ødegaard pass into the net.
"We hoped to get an early score in the second half, but it came too late. In the end we tried 3-5-2, and Fredrikstad used that to the full with their counter attacks," Perry stated.
This all resulted in FFK passing RBK in the table, where Rosenborg is at a sad 8th place.
PS 1! Bjørn Tore Kvarme was back from start for the first time since the league opening match on 10 April after the nasty inguinal stretch.
PS 2! FFK hadn't beaten RBK on home ground since 1971. This is in other words a year when many records are being broken for Rosenborg in many ways.
