There are quite a few teams in Spain with keeping problems this year (when last year it was quite the opposite), so it would be great to see Lars get a transfer up to a side here.

Rosenborg have a big problem now because their League has ended so they dont have any competitive matches and just have to do with training or possibly a friendly until their next two games.

ken Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 They next play the 27th at home to Chelsea, what is the chance that they will refuse to let Lars leave for South Africa or more likely encourage him to suffer a minor injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I'm sure the club would be more then happy for him to get an almost meaningful game in between now and the game against Chelsea. Are they going to tell their other internationals (assuming they have some) that they can't play in Euro qualifiers? I expect he will answer the call if called.

Gian-Luca Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Apparently the UEFA.com profile on Hirshfeld claims that he is not Canadian, but German. Twits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start fan in exile Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 It was a good game by Lars, indeed. He also had a lot of help from his defense, who did not allow the spaniards to get close which made his night a lot easier than expected. All in all, it was gratifying for a Norwegian soccer fan to see Rosenborg play so well - this was not a lucky win, but rather a well-deserved one. Schalke away next, which I fear may be much more difficult. But then Chelsea come to Trondheim for the final game, and I imagine they will have defeated Valencia and already be group winners which may make them less motivated to play their best...and with a win there, Rosenborg would be second.

loyola Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 1-0 Chelsea. Lars made the first save on a Joe Cole strike but Didier Drogba scored on the rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCF08 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Half Time Score = 0-3.... Other result is also not going Rosenborgs way. Valencia - Schalke is 0-0 and Valencia are a man down. If Schalke get at least a point then they would only have to beat Rosenborg at home to take 2nd place. Rosenborg do take Uefa Cup football then though which is already amazing for them.

loyola Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 HT: Chelsea-Rpsenborg 3-0 Hirschfeld with a nice save at the end of the half. If this continues like the first half, this one could be a 5 or 6 goals game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloth8 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Wow. Although I was unable to watch the game on TSN (nor have I seen the highlights), based on the Soccernet report, it sounds like Lars did everything to keep the score line from being laughable. Hopefully his teammates can match his great form next week. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=228825&cc=5901 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildguy27 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I saw the game while I was eating at Pizza Hut. It looked like such a mismatch game. Rosenborg were made to look like a 18 and under boys team by Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Hirschfeld wants to defer decision whether to extend his contract with Rosenborg. The club however insists quick answer. Read more: http://www.rosenborg.info/article/5704 A winter move is possible if Rosenborg succeed in signing Rune Jarstein. I guess Lars has impressed quite a few clubs with his performances in the Champions League. I personally would like to keep Hirschfeld. He is a great person and his performances have been at a very high and stable level during his two seasons - in deep contrast to his predecessor Espen Johnsen. Jarstein will hopefully be a good replacement though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toronto MB Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Interesting that Lars is waiting to respond to Rosenborg. Hopefully that means he is in fact getting some attention from other clubs, althought that is not guaranteed. I watched the game yesterday and thought that Lars did a decent job in a tough situation. There is no doubt that Lars is a great athlete, he has swift agility and quick reaction times. What does continue to seem suspect about his play is his positioning. The ESPN analyst made a note of that early in the game. So, in that sense, he is the complete opposite of Onstad. What is also hopeful is that if Lars steps up to a bigger club and gets some better coaching maybe his positional play will improve. Regardless, just great to see a Canadian playing in the Champions League. Kudos to Lars. And it would seem that an away draw at Schalke would carry them through to the next round, which would be a major accomplishment for Rosenborg. I believe a loss would still see them through to the UEFA Cup which would be great for them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpg75 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Rosenborg are down 1-0 at Schalke. Asamoah with a goal in the 13th minute... Setanta showing the score at 2-1 Schalke now...UEFA matchtracker has not updated yet. Now 3-1 Schalke...Asamoah, Rafinha and Kuranyi for Schalke, Kone for RBK.

Start fan in exile Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 This time of year is always tough for Rosenborg - aside from the game v. Chelsea, they have not kicked a ball in anger since the Norwegian season ended over a month ago. It seems their defense is struggling the most - all three Schalke goals are due to really sloppy defending by players who are obviously in their off-season. Lars has made some good saves, and is not at fault on any of the goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
