Twum came off the bench to help IK Start make a quick return to the topflight after just a season in the Norwegian First Division despite losing 4-3 to Lillestrom.

His introduction in the 71st minute sparked a spirited fight back from the Kristiasand side who were down by four goals in 60 minutes.

Martin Ramsland's hat-trick in the last 15 minutes ensured IK Start qualified to the topflight on away goal rule.
