Vålerenga II Make Intility a Fortress with Back-to-Back Wins
Vålerenga's reserve side have won two consecutive home matches at Intility Arena, defeating Konnerud 2-1 on 5 September and Gamle Oslo 2-1 on 12 September. Both victories followed the same pattern: a goalless first half before the hosts stepped up after the break.
Back-to-Back Wins for Vålerenga II at Intility
Vålerenga's reserve side have made Intility Arena a fortress in early September, claiming consecutive home victories to keep their campaign on track. First came a 2-1 win over Konnerud on 5 September — a game that was goalless at the break before the hosts found their finishing touch in the second half.
Then, on 12 September, Vålerenga II repeated the trick, again winning 2-1, this time against Gamle Oslo. Once more it was a patient performance, with the score level at half-time before the reserve side pulled clear after the interval.
The Pattern Behind the Results
Both matches followed a strikingly similar script: a goalless first half followed by a decisive second-half turnaround. The ability to find a winning gear after the break points to a determined and well-drilled squad capable of grinding out results when it matters most.
The back-to-back victories at Intility Arena will provide a confidence boost ahead of the reserve side's next home fixture, when Vålerenga II host Bærum on 26 September.
Looking Ahead
With two hard-fought home wins secured in quick succession, momentum is firmly on Vålerenga II's side as the season enters its latter stages. Supporters looking to catch the reserves in action can head to Intility Arena for the Bærum fixture, with kick-off scheduled for 14:00 on 26 September.
