Strømsgodset Wins Season Opener in 1st Division

New signing Sebastian Pingel was the hero at Marienlyst, scoring the winner with a brilliant tackle inside Stabæk's box. The goal gave the home side a vital point after Jacob Hanstad put the visitors ahead in the second half.

Strømsgodset manager Magne Hoseth expressed satisfaction with the result following last season's relegation. Hoseth replaced Dag-Eilev Fagermo this winter and praised the team's performance.
