Arna-Bjørnar completed a commanding 6-2 victory over Brønn in the Norwegian First Division, Regular Season round 13, played on 8 August 2026. The away side took control early and never looked back, leaving the hosts to pick up the pieces on home turf. It was a result that shifted the momentum between two sides sitting close together in fifth and sixth place.
Arna-Bjørnar struck first through A. Nigardsoy in the ninth minute, then doubled their lead just five minutes later when M. Andersen found the net. Brønn's response came through I. Lund in the 32nd minute, a brief spark that didn't last. The visitors quickly reasserted dominance, with K. Haeak pulling them back into a two-goal cushion by the 67th minute.
The second half saw Arna-Bjørnar extend their advantage in rapid succession. A. Nigardsoy added his second in the 73rd minute, and E. Fjellskalnes followed a minute later. Brønn's resistance crumbled further as two own goals—first by I. E. Rusdal in the 83rd, then H. Stenersen in the 84th—sealed the rout. The hosts had their backs against the wall and found no answer.
Before the match Brønn sat sixth on 11 points from eight games, while Arna-Bjørnar occupied fifth with 14 points. The result leaves the visitors two points clear of the hosts, though the gap feels wider after a day where the away side played in driving rain and still found the back of the net six times.
Arna-Bjørnar's recent form has been mixed—a heavy 6-0 win over Klepp followed a narrow 1-0 defeat to Start Women—but this performance suggests they are finding their rhythm. Brønn, meanwhile, have lost three of their last four and will need to regroup quickly if they are to climb out of the lower half.
