Norwegian Goalkeeper Received Eggs Instead of MVP Award

Jan de Boer, the goalkeeper for Brann Bergen, was named the MVP in the match against Bodø/Glimt. However, instead of receiving a traditional MVP award after the game, he was handed two dozen eggs by the award sponsor. Bodø/Glimt, who recently eliminated Olympiacos from the Europa League, won 1-0 at Brann’s home ground in the Norwegian championship match. Despite conceding the lone goal, De Boer was outstanding on the field, making several crucial saves to keep his team in contention. The photo of him holding the cartons of eggs went viral online, with thousands of comments praising the unique prize and noting that in many countries, these eggs might cost as much as the player’s contract during this period.
