Aalesund stunned Brann with a dramatic win at Color Line Stadion on Wednesday evening. It seemed to be ending 1-1, but four minutes into stoppage time, Henrik Melland secured the victory for Aalesund. This crucial win lifts Aalesund above the relegation zone in Eliteserien, while Brann remains in 6th place. Kjetil Rekdal, Aalesund's coach, was pleased with the win but felt the team should have decided the match earlier. He also expressed concern about the low attendance at the stadium, stating it is sad that more people are not witnessing the good team Aalesund has. Aalesund took the lead in the first half when young talent Marcus Reed scored after 27 minutes. Brann could not equalize before halftime, and in the second half, they came back with a goal from Noah Holm. However, Aalesund had the last word with Melland's goal in stoppage time, securing three points for the home team.
