Elverum defeated Drammen 32-24 in a club friendly match on Thursday, 14 August 2026. The away side controlled proceedings from the opening stages, building a lead that never seriously threatened. Drammen struggled to find their rhythm against a well-drilled opposition.
Elverum arrive in this fixture riding a four-match winning streak. They beat Runnar 34-30, Follo 35-21, and Fjellhammar 38-28 before this result. The consistency in their performances suggests a squad finding its shape ahead of the new campaign.
Drammen's recent form tells a different story. They lost their last two outings against Kolstad by a combined scoreline of 58-73. Those heavy defeats exposed defensive vulnerabilities that Elverum were happy to exploit. By then, the visitors had already established control of the match.
The eight-goal margin reflected a straightforward afternoon for Elverum. Drammen came for a cross he never reached in the first period, but the visitors tightened things up and ran away with it. The result extended their unbeaten run while ending Drammen's hopes of a positive result.
Both sides are weighing up their options in this pre-season window. Elverum's confidence will be high after such a comprehensive display. Drammen have work to do if they want to compete at the level they expect to reach.
