Mathias Gravem
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Mathias Gravem (born 15 March 1976) is a Norwegian-Swedish[1] former professional footballer who played as a forward for IFK Norrköping, GAIS, Ljungskile SK and Qviding FIF. Because of his notorious goal-scoring, Gravem became a legend in GAIS where he played between 2001 and 2006. He scored 58 goals in 104 matches in total for GAIS. Gravem got the nickname "Messias Gravem" [2] after the first few games where he scored many goals, notably four in the same match against IFK Malmö in 2001.[3][4] In 2003, he was injured but came on as a substitute with ten minutes left, scored a goal to secure advancement to Superettan for GAIS, and was then substituted off again. ”Messias” and Ville Viljanen formed a notorious striker partnership for many years, after GAIS got their hands on the at the time Finland international.[5] When the club could not afford him in 2003, supporters crowdsourced money (225.000 Swedish crowns) to retain him.[6][7]
