Aune Heggebø described the feeling of winning and scoring once again as an “amazing” one. 

The Norway international bagged Albion’s second in the 3-0 victory over Hull City at The Hawthorns on Saturday afternoon – the club’s first win of 2026 and Aune’s first goal of 2026. 

Heggebø’s second-half strike took his tally for the 2025/26 campaign to ten in all competitions, and the striker says his sights are set on increasing that number in the final eight second-tier matches of the season.

The 24-year-old said: “It was an amazing feeling to finally get back to winning ways on Saturday. It’s been a long time coming. 

“We’ve been building on the Sheffield United performance and result. We’ve now had three good performances when you look back at the Sheffield United, Southampton and Hull City matches.

“We’ve made some small adjustments in terms of tactics, but there’s been a real energy and enthusiasm about us recently. 

“I think the front players have been working well together in those three games I mentioned before – Daryl Dike and I for the first two and then Josh Maja and I on Saturday. We’ve had a good connection and hopefully that continues until the end of the season.

“When we are as dominant on the ball as we were on Saturday and we get into the final third as many times as we managed to, as a striker, you’re always going to be hunting for the types of crosses we were putting in. 

“It was really good to get on the scoresheet once again. It’s a great feeling and one I want to experience a lot more of in the final eight games. 

“We’ve shown a fighting spirit and a togetherness in recent matches, and that’s been the same down at the training ground too. We’ve been trying to lift each other and that comes from players taking responsibility and trying to do the best we can.”
