Bodø/Glimt cruised to a comfortable 3-0 win over HamKam, a result that never looked in doubt thanks to a dominant all-round performance. Andreas Helmersen‘s brace put the home side firmly in control before Patrick Berg added a third late on. The visitors were outclassed from start to finish, managing just two shots all game.
Helmersen opened the scoring in the 24th minute, converting Fredrik André Bjørkan‘s assist to make it 1-0. He struck again five minutes into the second half, this time unassisted, to double the lead. The game was effectively over, and Berg sealed the win in the 75th minute after a pass from Odin Luras Bjortuft. HamKam’s only notable moment was Anton Ekeroth’s yellow card on 70 minutes.
The numbers tell a story of total control: Bodø/Glimt had 71% possession, 20 shots to HamKam’s two, and an expected goals total of 2.35 against 0.30. Helmersen took his chances well, but the whole team suffocated the opposition. HamKam created one big chance but missed it, and their keeper made six saves to keep the scoreline respectable.
