Pre Season Friendly, Sunday 23rd February 2014
My second game in two days was back indoors at the Randaberg Arena for a pre season friendly between two local Division Three sides, Randaberg and Sola. The first half was not exactly full of goal mouth action but the best chances did fall to Randaberg, both free kicks whipped into the six yard box. One invaded everyone and went wide the other hit the base of the post before bouncing clear of danger. Sola had a couple of efforts on target, both saved easily by the keeper. However in the 40th minute Sola grabbed the lead when a ball over the top was chased by a forward and a defender and the forward shrugged off the defenders intentions before rifling a shot across the keeper into the far corner for 1-0. The second half almost brought an equaliser for Randaberg as after a corner was cleared towards the home sides captain he hit a first time volley back at the goal and it was well tipped over by the Sola stopper. Then in the 62nd minute Sola grabbed a killer second when the ball fell to their centre midfielder who hit a 25 yarder which the keeper got a hand too but could only push it into the corner of the net for 2-0. After this the game rather died as a contest as Randaberg faded away and Sola comfortably dominated possession, without really creating any chances of note as they just settled for their 2-0 lead. Sola did have a couple of long range efforts near to full time but these didn't trouble the goal to much and the game ended 2-0 to Sola, who in the end probably deserved their win overall.
