Nordtveit plays final game for Lillestrom + Vela hits jackpot in Gold Cup

Posted by Jeorge Bird on July 27, 2009

Havard Nordtveit played what is likely to be his last game in a Lillestrom shirt last night, as LSK suffered a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Rosenborg.

Nordtveit impressed at centre-back but couldn’t prevent a defeat and is now poised to link up with German side Nurburg in the coming days.

Carlos Vela was amongst the scorers as Mexico won the Gold Cup with a thumping 5-0 victory over USA last night.

Gerrado Torrado made it 1-0 from the penalty spot, with Giovani dos Santos adding a second. Vela made it 3-0 with a trademark chip. Vela set up Juan Antonio Castro for the fourth, before Guillermo Ocha completed the rout late on.
