Sander Berge leaves the squad of the national team

From. 20.30: Watch Northern Ireland-Norway on TV 2 or Sumo.

Sander Berge is traveling home from Northern Ireland, writes the Norwegian Football Association on Twitter Monday morning.

The Sheffield United player interrupted Sunday’s training session after his knee injury against Austria turned out to be worse than previously thought.

Thus, Norway will have to cope without one of its most important players in the game that is played tonight in Belfast.

– This means that Lars Lagerbäck cannot make fun of the midfielder duo with whom he would rather play against Serbia. Sander Berge is a banker in Norway’s central midfield. So the question is: who will play for Berge against Serbia in a month?

– Markus Henriksen is the one who has been used the most, but he has not played football in a long time. It performs well when it has the opportunity. Mattias Normann had the opportunity to change things. Patrik Berg berg has impressed in the Elite Series, but I doubt he has the chance. I think Henriksen will be Sander Berge’s partner against Serbia, so it’s stupid that they can’t play together tonight, says TV 2 soccer expert Jesper Mathisen.

Sander Berge was injured in the first round of the Nations League match against Austria on Friday, despite completing the match. On Monday, however, it became clear that the injury is so severe that he must return home from the national team meeting.

– You were supposed to take the test today, but you didn’t complete 100 percent. I can listen with the medical device. It is a big question for tomorrow. There is less than a 50 percent chance that he will play, if I have to judge, national team manager Lars Lagerbäck told a news conference Sunday night.
