In 1973 he was back in Molde, and played for Molde FK until he retired from football in 1982. He was top scorer in Molde FK and Fredrikstad FK. In the final game of the 1976 league season, he scored all goals in a 6-0 drubbing of Strømsgodset IF, which saved his club from relegation, and relegated the opposition instead. Six goals in one game is still the record for the Norwegian top league. The six goals made him top goal scorer in 1976 with 17 goals.[3][2]
