Gigović, Pettersen & Sauer Fire Sandefjord to 3-0 Home Run Opener
Sandefjord Fotball got their six-game Eliteserien home run at Jotun Arena off to the perfect start with a commanding 3-0 win over IK Start on 20 September. Goals from Ervin Gigović, Edvard Sundbø Pettersen and Mathias Sauer sealed the points after a goalless first half. Five more crucial home fixtures now follow before the season closes in December.
A Perfect Launch to the Home Run
Sandefjord Fotball are in flying form at Jotun Arena after launching their six-game Eliteserien home run in the best possible fashion. A dominant second-half display was capped by goals from Ervin Gigović, Edvard Sundbø Pettersen and Mathias Sauer, giving the hosts a resounding victory in front of their own supporters.
The first half ended goalless, but Sandefjord came out of the break a different side entirely, with the three goals sealing a clean sheet and all three points.
Goals That Will Be Talked About All Season
According to the club, the goals scored in Sunday's win are already being considered strong candidates for Sandefjord's goal-of-the-season award. The quality of the strikes left supporters at Jotun Arena with plenty to cheer about, and the performances of all three goalscorers will be among the talking points as the team prepares for the months ahead.
Five More Fixtures Still to Come
The win over Start was just the opening act. Sandefjord Fotball have five more home fixtures still scheduled at Jotun Arena before the season closes in December, with Lillestrøm, Molde, Tromsø and Vålerenga all set to visit. The final home match of the campaign is pencilled in for 13 December against Vålerenga.
Tickets for upcoming fixtures are on sale via TicketCo, and early demand suggests the home support is fully engaged for what promises to be a defining autumn stretch in Sandefjord.
