Bergen’s favourite soccer team Brann, was beaten soundly by Molde on Wednesday. Brann, who won the league championship last year, have now been knocked out of this year’s Football Cup.

Molde have been doing well recently. In their latest league match, they won 5 goals to 1, against the Oslo team VÃ¥lerenga. The recent glut of goals contrasts with early in the soccer season, when Molde opened with three matches that ended in no-score draws.
“We’ve been working hard, and as long as we are creating scoring opportunities, we don’t have to worry. We’re scoring eight goals from ten chances at goal. At the beginning it was the other way round,” says Molde trainer Kjell Evret to television station TV 2 Zebra.
After their defeat, Brann next have to face Latvian Ventspils, in the first round of the UEFA Champions League.
