It is a nasty thought.
Yes, you hardly dare think about how the Norwegian håndboldkommentatorer is going to sound, if it were to succeed Sandor Sagosen & co. to win the WORLD cup-gold in Herning.
In the discipline and go crazy with the microphone, Norway has for many years been the world champions, and slightly older readers may recall how Bjørge Lillelien sent his famous greeting to Thatcher, Churchill, and Lord Nelson, when Norway beat England in a WORLD cup qualifier in 1981.
– We are the best in the world! We are the best in the world!, screamed Bjørge Lillelien, before he came with his famous speech to England, where Thatcher among other things, was told, ‘your boys took a hell of a beating’.
You can hear the Norwegian amokjubel from 1981 here.
Lilleliens ‘we are the best in the world’ is a part of the Norwegian cultural heritage, and in 2002, the newspaper The Observer as the best performance by a commentator ever.
To Norway had beaten England out of the world cup, as Lillelien otherwise believed, is a detail. That ‘world’s best’ ending last in the group and was not in the vicinity of a WORLD cup ticket, we do not talk about.
The important thing is that the Norwegian håndboldkommentatorer not get the opportunity to fire a similar talk in the evening in Herning.
I hope it will be Thomas Kristensen, who will be allowed to play ordjonglør after the final whistle, and Ekstra Bladet have the wheel on the TV2 commentator with a manuscript.
‘Forget it, Norway. We are the best in the world’, is it on Ekstra sportsforside Sunday.
On the front is also a talk in the best Lillelien style for Erna Solbergs Norwegian people, who get to know who is the best in the world – at least for the handball!
Ekstra sportsforside Sunday
the Front is, of course, also reached Norway, where the Ekstra colleagues on the VG responded on their søndagsforside.
‘Hello, Extra Magazine. H. C. Andersen called. He would like to have his adventures back’, is the message on VG’s front page.
Whether it be a Danish H. C. Andersen-fairy tales or a Norwegian folktale, we find out Sunday night in Herning, when the world’s best, Denmark meets Norway in Boxen in Herning.
the WORLD cup final finished in time at. 17.30, so at 19-the time it will hopefully be completely quiet in the Norwegian kommentatorboks…
