"It's a process, but we see progress," stated A. Hiim after the recent match against Lillestrøm. Sarpsborg 08 is experiencing a defensive bloom after the implementation of Hiim's tactical changes. This season, the team has become more solid defensively, leading to an increase in points earned.

With a new backline featuring Charles Antwi and A. Hiim, the team has developed a more stable four at the back. They have built a solid wall, significantly reducing the opponent's chances. In the last five matches, Sarpsborg 08 has conceded only two goals. Additionally, L. Øy has had a fantastic season between the sticks.

Hiim has also encouraged more pressing from the midfield, resulting in higher possession. This situation creates opportunities for counterattacks and further offense. If this strategy is maintained, they could become a force this year.

The next challenge will be against Strømsgodset, and fans are excited to see if the team can maintain their new defensive form. The sound of supporters will surely raise the intensity.
