By the way also in Norway, L. Shelton does not seem to have found his feet yet at Vålerenga. However, F. Taylor is doing very well for Notodden (Division 2) where he is the top scorer for his team now. O. Thompson is also there and doing well.

Molde - Brann 3-2
06.10.08 22:00
Brann had a solid 2-0 lead at halftime, and Molde was one man down after a red card. But Brann emberassed themselves in the second half, allowing Molde to come back to win the match.
Like many times before this season, Brann started the game well against Molde. Halfway into the first half, Brann stole the ball on Molde's half and Petter Vaagan Moen took the ball to a suiting position before giving it a go from a distance. The shot was hard and low, and changed direction after touching the foot of a defender. The ball went just inside the left upright, giving Brann the lead.
Two minutes later goalkeeper Kenneth Udjus caught the the cross from a corner kick and started the play with a low kick towards Erik Huseklepp. Erik managed to hang onto the ball long enough to allow Rodolph Austin to catch up with the cross. The jamaican national scored on a beautiful diving header to give Brann a 2-0 lead.
Shortly after Molde's Mame Biram Diouf was sent into the locker rooms after receiving a red card, and at halftime it looked like an easy win being two goals up against ten players for the rest of the match,
But not quite so. Brann allowed Molde more and more space and did not follow the tactical plan for the second half. José Mota Jr. scored two goals against a passive defense, and Christian Steen made the emberassment complete for Brann four minutes before the end of the match after heading in a poorly defended set piece.
