Sandnes hosted Follo in the REMA 1000-liga on 30 August 2026. The visitors secured a 22:27 victory away from home. The final tally defined the match rather than any drama.
To be fair, the standings suggest a tight race at this stage. Sandnes sit 12th with 14 points after 26 matches. Follo are 11th on 17 points. The difference is marginal but meaningful.
And here's the thing regarding Sandnes, they remain unbeaten. Their record stands at seven wins and 19 draws with zero losses. They had beaten Varhaug 33:29 just days prior on 26 August.
Follo’s recent run has been sharper but less consistent. A 30:24 victory over Nordstrand on 22 August preceded drops against Haslum and Elverum. Those results tally with their three defeats so far. The visitors need to stabilise their performance levels moving forward.
By then, the hierarchy in the lower half of the table felt fluid. Follo extend their lead slightly with this away point. Sandnes still have plenty of time to turn those draws around.
