Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in Action

When the Molde players concluded their pre-match dynamic warm-up session, they, too, headed back to the dressing room to prepare for kick-off. Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer did not give his players even a minute to dress before starting to go through the game plan for the umpteenth time that week.

"Listen up, lads," he said, his brows drawing together. "If we hope to end our spell of poor performances this season, we need to start with this game. If we manage to beat a team like Rosenborg, we'll build up an unstoppable momentum. We'll acquire the sort of confidence that can destroy our remaining opponents throughout the season."

"I know that we're at the bottom of the table. Most of you have started losing a bit of your confidence because of that. But, please don't give up and play this game as if your life depends on it."
