About Kjell Moe
Lived 1909 – 1999 (aged 90). Kjell Moe was a Norwegian association football player.
Kjell Moe (27 October 1909 – 8 December 1999) was a Norwegian footballer who played for Fredrikstad between 1938 and 1945. He won two Norwegian league titles and one Norwegian Cup. He was capped twice and scored one goal for Norway in 1945; aged 35 at the time he is the oldest player to make his debut for the Norwegian national team.
Football career Moe was born in Fredrikstad, and played for Gresvik before he transferred to Fredrikstad FK in 1938. Moe was part of the team that won the Norwegian league in the 1937–38 season and the 1938–39 season. He also won the Norwegian Cup in 1940 where Skeid was beaten in the final; a journalist from Morgenbladet claimed that Moe was one of Fredrikstad's best players in the final.
During the Second World War, no organized football was played, and when the Football Association of Norway was to select a national team squad for the first international match after the war, they decided to primarily call-up players from the reigning Norwegian champions, Fredrikstad. Norway started the match against Denmark on 26 August 1945, which was dubbed "the independence match", with six Fredrikstad-players with four of them Moe, Thorleif Larsen, Bjørn Spydevold and Reidar Olsen making their international debut. Moe scored one goal in his debut, which Denmark won 4–2. He also played Norway's next match, which Denmark won 5–1 and this was his last international match.
Moe died in 1999.
