It ended in a 9-10 royal loss to Vivil IL on the gravel. Haaland and father Alfie Haaland were among the goalscorers for Team Skaugum. On the way there were also two goals from Prince Sverre Magnus.

– We strengthened the team a lot this time, but Vivil was too good, Crown Prince Haakon said afterwards.

Vivil is a sports team that works to activate the mentally disabled in Asker, Bærum and Oslo.

Monday’s match was the seventh in a row that the Crown Prince’s family had invited to Skaugum, but the first after a gap of two years.

Haaland lined up a few hours after officially becoming a Manchester City player. The day before, he scored Norway’s two goals in a 3-2 win over Sweden at the Ullevaal Stadium.

The super striker had the following to say about City’s transfer after the final game of the season:

– This of course will be special. It was the club where my father played. I’m looking forward to it.

– It will be a new big challenge in a good team, and we will meet many other good teams. It just brings a lot of positive energy to the country and the club. It’s just a matter of “playing around”.

Apart from Jærbuen, the royals also brought Barcelona star Caroline Graham Hansen into the team. Crown Princess Mette-Marit was appointed captain of Team Skaugum and went on to score goals.

Completion takes place in two rounds of 15 minutes. Before the match started, the Champions League anthem and the Norwegian national anthem were sung.

Legendary commentator Arne Scheie reported on the progress of the match over a loudspeaker system, while Kåre Fjørtoft was the judge.

Prior to kick-off, Jan-Åge Fjørtoft asked the Crown Prince and Crown Princess a few questions. This reveals why it is important for them to have show matches in circle football.

– Sports are fun, and especially grassroots sports are important. Everyone should be able to participate in the sports arena, said Crown Prince Haakon.

Fjørtoft insists that the Crown Princess shares the same reasoning as Haaland. Ingrid’s daughter Alexandra agreed and said the following to her mother:

– Yes, you really have.
