EKEBERG (Dagsavisen): – We can’t let those kinds of chances in and not score the big ones we have in the first half, says YMCA captain Robin Rasch to Dagsavisen after the 1-2 loss to the Vikings. He thought that the teams played a good game, but it is clear that more chances must be wasted.
– Today we are good for long periods, and then there are individual situations that allow us to enter. We are not so good that we can lay out odds and bet that he will sit at the end, we have to put it when we are there and save when it comes against him, he says.
Discipline was good
YMCA dominated most of the game after a neat finish by Petter Nosakhare Dahl in the 22nd minute. For most of the game, they controlled the Vikings well, where defensively they managed to prevent the Vikings from getting big chances and offensively they had some big chances that they couldn’t score on .
From the 81st minute it started to go downhill when Vikings Sander Svendsen scored from long range after a bit of poor handling from goalkeeper Emil Ødegaard. In the 88th minute, the score also increased when Vikings representative Harald Tangen headed the ball into the goal.
Better reviews
Head coach Johannes Moesgaard tells Dagsavisen that he is very disappointed that they managed to concede one more goal.
– We concede a relatively simple goal, there is a shot from outside the penalty area that ends up in the box and then you see that the energy of the guys runs out a little. Regardless, we have points, so it is disappointing that we manage to concede one more, which is not Eliteserien standard.

Since the summer holidays, YMCA have lost both games, the first time against Lillestrøm a week and a half ago and now against the Vikings. To end the losing streak, Moesgaard believes that better tactical assessments must be made during the game.
– We may have to look at the changes. If we have leadership then it is important that we have an even greater workforce defensively than we have chosen today, he says.
Home or Away: Indifferent
YMCA is halfway through its first season in the Eliteserien and is still winless at home in Ekeberg. During Moesgaard’s time at the club, he had a lot of home places so he doesn’t care about it, he doesn’t care if Kåffa plays at home or away, but he wants to win to his audience.
– We go into every game with the idea that we can win the game, be it at home or away which has nothing to do with me. We are trying to win at home for the community. To be able to get three points out here and create some energy around it, but our performance is not allowed, and then we don’t get the opportunity to do it, but we run and fly every day to do it, He concludes. .
The next task for Kåffa is an away game against Tromsø next Saturday. The teams will be left with the 15 points they took before the holiday.
There are as many as seven teams one and two points behind them, so only two points down to a relegation place right now.
