Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has guided Molde to their first Norwegian league title in his first season in charge. Solskjaer's team drew 2-2 with Stromsgodset while Rosenborg – the only side who could stop them – were thrashed 6-3 at home by Brann.
"The club has waited 100 years for this," said the former Manchester United striker who played for Molde before spending 11 years at Old Trafford. "We have been close several times so this was well deserved. When Brann went 4-1 I realised we had done it. It was a good atmosphere in the dressing room and we will enjoy ourselves tonight."
Molde, who have an eight-point advantage at the top with two matches to play, almost threw away the chance to end the title race when they conceded a last-minute equaliser to Stromsgodset's Anders Konradsen.
But Rosenborg, kicking-off later, buckled under the pressure as Brann ran riot – Rudolph Austin and Birkir Mar Saevarsson scoring twice to stun the home crowd in Trondheim.
