Bab 180: Tension across Lerkendal

Coach Johansen cast a quick glance at his wristwatch and noticed it was already coming to the 78th minute of gameplay. He let out a pent-up breath of air, rubbed his hands together, and returned his full attention to the proceedings on the field of play.

He'd never yearned for the time to pass by quicker before that moment. He hoped for the match to end soon so that his team could at least walk away with a point.

The pressure his players were facing on the field due to Tore Reginiussen's red card was immense. The Molde players had fully capitalized on their numerical advantage during the few minutes after the red card. They'd managed to keep Rosenborg's ten men on tenterhooks, leaving them without a single moment for a breather.
