Bryne cruised into the next round of the Norwegian SAS Braathens Cup with a comfortable 3-0 away win over Roseland on 27 August 2026. The visitors showed no mercy in a one-sided cup tie, controlling proceedings from the first whistle to the last.

Bryne dominate from the outset

Roseland, who were competing several divisions below their opponents, struggled to contain Bryne's pace and movement in the final third. Bryne opened the scoring early and never looked back, adding a second before half-time to put the tie beyond doubt.

The home side did manage to create a couple of half-chances on the break, but Bryne's defence remained untroubled for the most part. The third goal arrived in the second half, putting the seal on a professional and efficient performance.

Cup competition provides clear contrast

The Norwegian SAS Braathens Cup has always been known for its potential for upsets, but on this occasion, the quality gap between the sides was too large to bridge. Roseland can take pride in their effort, yet the result was never in question once Bryne found their rhythm.

Bryne's squad depth was on full display, with several players using the match to press for more regular first-team opportunities. The clean sheet will also give the coaching staff confidence ahead of upcoming league fixtures.

Key takeaways

• Early goals: Scoring twice in the first half allowed Bryne to manage the game on their terms.
• No complacency: The visitors maintained their intensity even after taking a comprehensive lead.
• Roseland's fight: The lower-league hosts never stopped running, but lacked the quality to trouble Bryne consistently.

Bryne will now turn their attention to the next round of the cup, while Roseland return to league action knowing they gave a good account of themselves against higher-level opposition.
