Jerv came from behind to beat Brattvag 2‑1 in the Norwegian 2. Divisjon on 21 June 2026, extending their unbeaten run and keeping pressure on the league leaders. The match at Brattvag Stadion saw the home side take an early lead, but Jerv’s resilience and tactical adjustments turned the game around.

First‑Half Action

Brattvag started brightly and scored in the 12th minute when a whipped cross was met by a powerful header at the back post. Jerv looked unsettled for the next 15 minutes, struggling to find rhythm. However, they gradually grew into the game and equalised just before half‑time. A defensive lapse allowed Jerv’s striker to intercept a back‑pass and slot home.

Second‑Half Turnaround

The away side took control after the interval. Jerv’s midfield began to dominate possession, and they took the lead in the 64th minute with a well‑struck volley from the edge of the area. Brattvag pushed for an equaliser but lacked precision in the final third. Jerv’s goalkeeper made a crucial save in the 82nd minute to secure the three points.
