He had already clinched a move to Tottenham Hotspur FC, after having won two league titles previously with Rosenborg. He was top scorer with Spurs last season, and has proved himself a prolific marksman. He is a natural predator, with good close control, and pressed his claims for a regular place in the Norwegian starting line-up.

He broke his leg twice in 1999 and was unable to reclaim his place in the Hertha Berlin side, prompting a return to Norway with Vålerenga Fotball. He has a powerful shot and scored a crucial late equaliser away to England in 1993 with a strike from distance to help Norway on their way to qualifying for the 1994 FIFA World Cup. He has a reputation for coolness under pressure - as shown when he scored the 89th-minute penalty that gave Norway a crucial and unexpected 2-1 win over Brazil at 1998 FIFA World Cup.

The ‘Baby-Faced Assassin’ first hit the spotlight with his displays with Molde FK, and his 13 goals in 19 games for the Norwegian Under-21 side. Understandably, it was not long before he made his international debut, and he was promptly signed by Manchester United FC in 1995. He scored on his United debut, and went on to score 19 goals and win a league championship medal in his first season at Old Trafford, in which he was also voted Norwegian Player of the Year. In the past two seasons, he has had to be content with a ‘super-sub’ role at United despite an excellent strike-rate.

Background
Two centuries of Viking raids into Europe tapered off following the adoption of Christianity by King Olav TRYGGVASON in 994. Conversion of the Norwegian kingdom occurred over the next several decades. In 1397, Norway was absorbed into a union with Denmark that was to last for more than four centuries. In 1814, Norwegians resisted the cession of their country to Sweden and adopted a new constitution. Sweden then invaded Norway but agreed to let Norway keep its constitution in return for accepting the union under a Swedish king. Rising nationalism throughout the 19th century led to a 1905 referendum granting Norway independence. Although Norway remained neutral in World War I, it suffered heavy losses to its shipping. Norway proclaimed its neutrality at the outset of World War II, but was nonetheless occupied for five years by Nazi Germany (1940-45). In 1949, neutrality was abandoned and Norway became a member of NATO. Discovery of oil and gas in adjacent waters in the late 1960s boosted Norway's economic fortunes. The current focus is on containing spending on the extensive welfare system and planning for the time when petroleum reserves are depleted. In referenda held in 1972 and 1994, Norway rejected joining the EU.

    Tore Andre Flo is the classical center forward; high, strong and speedy, his presence in the rival's area is synonym of danger. He dominates the air game, aided in his height and in his extraordinary capacity to jump. Tore Andre is also an extremely accurate finisher to goal with both legs and he is speedy, bringing forward and goal-scorer instinct. He was dubbed ‘Flonaldo’ after a two-goal display against Brazil in May 1997, and he scored against the same opposition 13 months later in the 1998 World Cup.
