In a robust display, Valerenga secured a convincing 3-1 victory over Viking FK. The match proved to be an intense contest of strategic play, with Valerenga's effective finishing making the ultimate difference. Scoring the first goal in the first half (00:40:50), Valerenga established early dominance despite Viking's equalizer in the second half (01:02:18). Valerenga responded swiftly with goals in the 65th (01:05:37) and 79th minutes (01:19:12), effectively sealing the game.

Both teams displayed aggressive tactics resulting in a fairly even distribution of fouls and yellow cards, each collecting three cautions. Although Valerenga committed slightly more fouls with 12 compared to Viking's 11, Viking's aggression cost them significantly, especially with a red card in the second half that tilted the game towards Valerenga. The numerical disadvantage highlighted Viking’s struggle to keep pace, which allowed Valerenga to exploit gaps in their defense effectively.

Corner kicks further demonstrated the balance in opportunities created, with Valerenga edging Viking 8-7.
