Kolstad star wins Norway’s scoring race by a single goal

The closest top scorer race in European handball may have taken place in Norway. Simon Jeppsson edges Emil Havsgård in one of Europe’s closest battles.

Kolstad’s Simon Jeppsson finished the season with 207 goals, just one ahead of Bækkelaget’s Emil Havsgård on 206. The dramatic finish capped another strong campaign for the Swedish star, who helped power Kolstad’s title-winning season.

One of the biggest surprises on the list was Bergen teenager Ciljan Sagosen, who finished fourth with 153 goals despite being only 18 years old.
