Sæter does not just have it in his mouth. In the 3-1 victory over Kristiansund on a summer-hot Lerkendal, the Trøndelag striker struck with a fiery hat-trick.
Two stunning goals before the break were followed up with a goal getter scoring after the break, as well as a cannon in the crossbar.

– I signed last year, and then I tweeted something like that “it would be boring to score a hat-trick here”. It was very boring. I have to find another sport, I think, says Sæter to Eurosport.
– Was it too easy? asks the reporter.
– No, it’s not. I’ve worked hard for it. I score three shitty goals, I get them served, so it was thanks to the other ten on the field.

It was without a doubt a personal boost for the 26-year-old, who was taken off for break in the 1-3 loss against Lillestrøm in the previous round.
“It’s the worst thing I’ve been through, and I’ll make sure it never happens again,” Sæter told VG a little over a week ago.
1-0 came after a beautiful post from the great Carlo Holse. Sæter put it safely and beautifully in the net roof. At 2-1, he headed the ball past Aliou Coly, took it with him on the chest and put it with his left foot.
Meanwhile, Pavle Vagic had missed the RBK defense, which was maximized by Bendik Bye (goal scorer) and Amidou Diop.
Sæter also distinguished himself with a fight with Max Williamsen, where the latter after a lot of pushing was thrown to the ground by the RBK striker.
– Nonsense, said Eurosport commentator Tor Ole Skullerud.
– On a night where he is in the spotlight to that degree, he can save himself for it, Skullerud said.
– First and foremost, we get to pay tribute to the Sæter show tonight, he concluded towards the end of the match. Then Sæter had just hammered the ball into the crossbar.
Kjetil Rekdal says the following to VG:
– He lives a little on the border, and gets a little annoyed sometimes. It’s a silly yellow card he’s wearing today when we lead 3-1. It’s about smartness. It should be allowed to boil to a certain point, but then it must stop. But when he scores three goals, we are extremely happy with him.
Sæter describes the episode as follows:
– I’m holding him. Then I get a blow from him. I do not feel it belongs. Once I hold him, I get yellow anyway. Then the young boy bites unfortunately, and gets a yellow card too. I am 26 years old and have been in the game longer than someone who is 17-18 years old. I won there too.
– What do you put in “kind”?
– What I put in it is to move my hand at a relatively high speed up towards my face. That’s how I feel, but I have not seen it again.
Kristiansund coach Christian Michelsen believes “there must be some adrenaline and temperature”.
– If there is no opening for something like that, you have to come up with something else, he says.
Sæter only had 173 minutes of elite league football this year before tonight’s match, but is now up to five league goals. Nevertheless, Kjetil Rekdal will be looking for a right wing back, a midfielder and a midfielder, according to Adresseavisen.
– We are not able to buy a tip for 15 million kroner, Rekdal says the newspaper.
He says that they are working with a “shadow team” with players who can fit into RBK.
Rekdal can boast that he is still undefeated at Lerkendal (3 wins, two draws).
PS! Christian Michelsen’s Kristiansund stands with one poor point after nine games.
