“ We met a good team and we defended okay. The game had different phases, but overall we played well.

“There are great players here. I feel we had more chances than them, so if we had exploited them better, I think the outcome would had been different, ”says Olofinjana.to the official website ikstart.no.

The 34 - year - old continued : “Being the first game, the OK. I missed a few touches which is usually easy for me, but I have not played the game a long time, so it takes some time. I’m surprised how well it went anyway.”
