SFK Lyn preserved their chances of claiming second spot in the Norwegian Tippeliga when they recorded a 1-1 draw at Odds BK today.
Bright start
Odd had hoped to be challenging for third place and got off to a good start when talented young striker Martin Wiig opened the scoring after 14 minutes, but the home team squandered several good chances to increase the lead before half-time.
Løvvik levels
They were made to pay for their profligacy as Lyn battled their way back into the match when Kjetil Løvvik equalised midway through the second half. Rosenborg BK have already clinched the title and the players' medals will be handed over before their home match against SK Brann on Sunday.
