Vålerenga Fotball lost to HamKam at home in Oslo. Henrik Udahl scored the only goal after seven minutes. Vålerenga has not won in six games and is now in 11th place in Eliteserien. HamKam and Thomas Myhre have started the season strongly and are currently in 6th place. The match was Vålerenga's first since the departure of head coach Geir Bakke. Petter Myhre, Bakke's assistant, has temporarily taken over the team. His first match in charge ended in defeat. Vålerenga chose to part ways with Geir Bakke as head coach on Thursday. Football expert Lars Tjærnås was not kind to Vålerenga after the news. He asked why the club is a 'graveyard' for so many talented people over such a long time. Vålerenga's sports manager, Joacim Jonsson, dismissed the criticism. He said that expectations are higher than prerequisites. It is still unclear who will take over Bakke's job on a permanent basis. KFUM coach Johannes Moesgaard, who has a past in VIF, has been touted as the hottest candidate for the job.
