Brann player calls RBK crisis 'strange' after KFUM win

Brann player calls RBK crisis 'strange'

Brann defender Marthine Østenstad has reacted to Rosenborg's dire situation, calling it "strange" to see the Trondheim club sitting 15th in Eliteserien with just 8 points from 10 matches (3). RBK have lost five straight and sit second-bottom, nine points adrift of safety. The outside perspective lands as the club fights to turn things around, but there is at least a sliver of good news this week.

Finally a win, KFUM Oslo beaten 2–0

Rosenborg grabbed their first victory in six attempts on Monday, winning 2–0 away to KFUM Oslo. The three points are a lifeline but the table still makes grim reading: 15th place, goal difference -9, and a long way to go. It is a start, nothing more.

Sweat and soda, a feel-good moment

A lighter note from Lerkendal: the squad marked the win with a low-key celebration involving soda and Norwegian svele pancakes (1). A small moment of relief after weeks of pressure, and exactly the kind of reminder that this group still believes.

Women's team banks on a sharpshooter

Rosenborg BK Kvinner are pinning their hopes on a key forward to fire them to victory in their next outing (2). No name or fixture confirmed yet, but the confidence around her form is clear. With the men's side battling relegation, any positive headline from the women's team carries extra weight around the club.
