Fan injured after falling through hole in stand
A fan was taken to hospital after several Bodo/Glimt supporters fell through a hole in the away stand at Tromso.
During a Norwegian top-flight football match at Tromso Arena, a fan suffered an injury after falling through a hole in the away stand. The incident occurred just before halftime when Bodo/Glimt goalkeeper Nikita Haikin called for the referee's attention. Bodo/Glimt spokesperson Simen Pedersen confirmed to Reuters that "up to five people fell through the stands."
Fan Andrine Moen explained to Verdens Gang that "the floor gave way during a supporter song." She noted that "two people fell through the floor, but we don’t know how far they fell or how many fell in total." The remaining Bodo supporters were temporarily relocated to other sections of the stadium before the match resumed. The game, taking place in heavy rain at Norway's northernmost venue in the Eliteserien, ended in a 0-0 draw.
However, Bodo forward Ola Brynhildsen scored twice after the match resumed, securing a 2-0 victory for the league leaders. Bodo is currently in a title fight with Viking, and the Eliteserien season is expected to conclude in the first week of December.
