MJØNDALEN (VG) (Mjøndalen – Strømsgodset 3-0) Sosha Makani (33) stopped all attempts by Strømsgodset, coach Vegard Hansen switched midfield and “barked” during the break, and Mjøndalen fought like meatballs. This is how you become a derby winner.
The three-goal victory in “Ælv Clásico” means not only three points, or Mjøndalen passing Start on the table and taking the qualifying spot, but also the Browns grabbing the opponent’s ankles and pulling them down towards the background battle.
Four points separate with six games to play, and Start is the point behind Mjøndalen again. Mjøndalen also improved goal difference, and there was one man to thank for that: goalkeeper Sosha Makani.

– Today is fantastic. This is how it is at its best. At the beginning of the fight he is very authoritative in the box. Choose what comes, it has an aura around it and it transmits confidence. Class, exclaims Mjøndalen coach Vegard Hansen.
Team captain Christian Gauseth answers as follows how many goalkeepers in the Eliteserien are better than those in Mjøndalen:
– Today: None. Especially in situations where it ends. One by one, it’s absolutely fantastic, and it stops shooting incredibly. Has some challenges with the legs, but today it does not seem. He was shown everything he can today, Gauseth thinks.
For “Ælv Clásico”, Mjøndalen appeared as Mjøndalen in speed: A team effort with muscle and power, nine out of eleven men 181 centimeters or taller – and when doubled up in aerial duels, as they did on set pieces. who made it 1-0 after just four minutes of play, then Mjøndalen is at its all-time high and brown.
Drammenser Martin Rønning Ovenstad took a free kick down the field, Fredrik Brustad and Markus Nakkim formed a common aerial weapon and the ball fell on Ole Amund Sveen. The 30-year-old who came from immediate champion Bodø / Glimt this fall scored the lead goal through Kristoffer Tokstad.
This is how the home team got the opening they wanted, and the rest of the round was apparently all about blocking for the Mjøndalen players. They threw away all the keys they found in the Drammenselva and put Sosha Makani as a ruthless prison guard in the back.
When Strømsgodset started digging up Mjøndalen, the Iranian discovered everything the guests tried. Makani was down with a long arm in the far corner when Johan Hove shot hard and low, the goalkeeper threw himself into Hove’s legs as a corner kick gave the Godset player a chance from close range, stopping Valdimar Ingimundarson when he arrived alone.
In fact, the direction could have been even better for Mjøndalen in the first half: Sondre Liseth played Fredrik Brustad free with a blank goal just before half-time. But the end for the Oslo boy was 16 meters out!

Mjøndalen coach Vegard Hansen understood that he had to do something by halves.
– We had a break talk that doesn’t seem like a 1-0 lead. He was not happy, nor was he angry, but rather upset and disappointed. They agreed, we couldn’t play another round like this. We hit the table a little bit, we had to, but it didn’t help. Then we had to change, says Vegard Hansen.
While Strømsgodset coach Henrik Pedersen knocked out two men at halftime, Mjøndalen switched his “V-midfield” and left Christian Gauseth as the striker hanging behind Brustad.
The grip was most evident at the scoreboard 2-0: Ovenstad won a duel in the middle of the field and passed the ball to Gauseth. Moldenseren played straight through Brustad, who doubled the lead with a single swing with Viljar Myhra.
The mega failure of the first part was forgotten, Mjøndalen went ahead by two and took control, Sosha Makani took off her Superman costume.
For the teammates, Godset had a good opportunity to attack on the wings, but remembered his instructions to attack in the middle. They failed to create scoring chances. The six from the Estate arrived before recess.
– We knew very well what Godset had. They are not very multidimensional. They are quite easy to remove. They have some things that they are good at, but if you can learn, there is nothing left. We proved that in the second round, says Christian Gauseth.
Mjøndalen also added a third goal. Substitute Stian Semb Aasmundsen – “only” 175 centimeters and therefore small in Vegard Hansen’s Mjøndalen team – soared through the air and directed Shuaibu Ibrahim’s post to the bottom of the post.
