Football match
The 2009 Superfinalen was the first edition of
Superfinalen, an annual
football match contested by the winners of the previous season's
Tippeligaen and
Norwegian Cup competitions. It was played on 8 March 2009, at
Telenor Arena in
Bærum, between
Stabæk and
Vålerenga, winners of the
2008 Tippeligaen and
2008 Norwegian Football Cup respectively. A collaboration between the
Football Association of Norway,
Norsk Toppfotball, the incumbent league and cup champions, and the broadcaster
TV 2, the match was seen as a test of the viability of a
Super Cup in Norway.

FA Community Shield, the Superfinalen is intended to be a season opener, with the net proceeds of each match going to charity. In 2009, these proceeds were donated to
UNICEF.

The game was a repeat of the
2008 Norwegian Football Cup Final, in which Vålerenga had defeated Stabæk 4–1. This time, however, it was Stabæk who won the match 3–1 after goals by
Daniel Nannskog,
Daigo Kobayashi and
Pálmi Rafn Pálmason.
Mohammed Abdellaoue scored for the losing side.

The game also served as the official opening match of
Telenor Arena, which became Stabæk's home ground from 2009 to 2011.
