Publié : 04 mai 2004 15:28
The first round of the Fotball Association Cup is tomorrow, Wednesday. Odd Grenland is the most winning team in the national cup in Norway with 12 victories, and we are really hoping for a final in November this year.
We will play against Aassiden, a 3rd division team (4th, if you count Premier League as number 1). We also met them in 2002 were we won 0-9 in first round. That year we lost for Valerenga in the final.
This match should be a match with alot of goals, and alot of goals from Ollie. Wish us luck and a good trip to Aassiden. I really like the first rounds of the FA-cup were we travel to all kind of exotic places
A side note: How is the national cup in Canada, is it big? Or are you just having a play-off like the NFL/NHL system?
The cup is pretty special and big in Norway. Its similar to the FA-cup in England. The cup in Norway and England is pretty unique in Europe, other countries are trying to do the same, but not with the same result.
So this is special for us, and ofcourse, important to win!
