Football career

Early career

Fostervold started his career in Rival, and then played in Vestfold for Sandefjord, Stokke IL and Eik-Tønsberg.

Molde

In 1994, Fostervold returned to his hometown and started to play for Molde FK. He got his debut for the club on 1 May 1994 in a second tier game against Åndalsnes.[1]

Fostervold played 172 matches for Molde from 1994 to 2002 as a centre-back and scored 13 goals. He also captained the team for four years, from 1996 to 1999.[2]

Fostervold is well known for a dive he took while playing for Molde in the match against Stabæk on 18 September 1999. After being hit in the face by Pétur Marteinsson, Fostervold waited for a few seconds before throwing himself to the ground, clutching his face in an attempt to attract the referee's attention.[3] Footage of the dive has become popular on video sharing platforms. John Carew parodied the dive in celebration after scoring a goal in another match.

Grimsby Town (loan)

Fostervold joined Grimsby Town on loan during the 2000–01 season, after manager Lennie Lawrence brought in several foreign imports on a loan basis.

Cycling career

He retired from football due to injury in 2003, and now competes in cycling.[4]

Fostervold won a bronze medal in the Norwegian national time-trial championships in 2005, behind former world under-23 time trial champions and Tour de France stage winners Thor Hushovd and Kurt Asle Arvesen.[5] He won another bronze in 2006, and won silver in 2007 behind Edvald Boasson Hagen.[6] In 2006 and 2007 he represented Norway in the world championship time trial (placing 43rd and 51st respectively).
