Blackburn boss Kenny Dalglish first saw you playing against England at Wembley in 1992. What do you remember of the game?
This is a crazy story. I’d just gotten into the Norway team, so I was on the bench. Our centre-back, Tore Pedersen, got an elbow to the head from Ian Wright. Our doctor ran on and asked Tore what the score was. Because England had been dominating, the doctor thought England were leading 1-0. But the score was actually 0-0. Tore said it was 0-0, so the doctor thought he had concussion and made him go off. I came on and Dalglish saw me playing. A month later, I was invited to train with Blackburn and they offered me a contract. It was pretty good for me
