Madla IL put in a dominant performance at home against Hinna, cruising to a 3-0 victory in the Norwegian 3.Divisjon on May 26, 2026. The hosts controlled proceedings from start to finish, leaving Hinna with little answer to their attacking intensity.

Match Overview

Madla took the game to their visitors immediately, pressing high and winning the ball in dangerous areas. The opening goal arrived early, and from that point the outcome never seemed in doubt. Hinna struggled to string passes together and rarely threatened the Madla goal.

Key Moments

1. 8th minute – A defensive error from Hinna allowed Madla striker Simen Åge Nilsen to pounce and slot home from close range.
2. 33rd minute – Midfielder Tobias Eriksen curled a beautiful free kick over the wall and into the top corner, doubling the lead.
3. 73rd minute – Substitute Andreas Vold fired a low shot from the edge of the box that took a deflection and nestled in the net.

Tactical Story

Madla employed a high‑pressing 4-3-3 system that suffocated Hinna’s attempts to build from the back. The visitors rarely advanced past the halfway line with possession, and their only shot on target came from a speculative 40‑yard free kick. Madla’s midfield trio dominated the centre of the park, winning second balls and initiating attacks quickly.

Player Performances

Simen Åge Nilsen was the standout player, scoring the crucial early goal and causing problems with his movement throughout. Central midfielder Tobias Eriksen also impressed, controlling the tempo and adding a superb set‑piece goal. For Hinna, goalkeeper Magnus Lindqvist made several fine saves to keep the score respectable.

Standings and Implications

The win kept Madla firmly in the promotion race, moving them to third place in the Norwegian 3.Divisjon table, only three points behind the leaders. Hinna, conversely, remain in the bottom half and now face a battle to avoid the relegation playoff places.
