Celebrity game at Norway Cup 2023

Get ready for the most fun football match of the year during Norway Cup. The Match of Values will be played on Wednesday 2 August at 12.00. We offer entertaining football, tackles, falls, jubilant scenes and maybe a little tear.

The Match of Values is a regular feature of Norway Cup. This year we are collaborating with Save the Children Norway and Mot. The most important thing we do in the match is to promote good values for children and young people. This year we are promoting equality, and the referees and Fair Play receive extra attention. Among other things, players from the two teams with the best Fair Play scores can take part in The Match of Values.

- We want Norway Cup to be the world's most important arena for sporting joy and friendship. We must show children and young people that everyone is equally valuable and that we must care for each other. And The Match of Values is an arena where celebrities help us focus on our most important message, says Rannveig Sundelin, Head of CSR and Sustainability at Norway Cup.

The value match is played in the finals arena at Ekeberg.
