He said in an interview after the game to the Stabæk official YouTube channel that he was very happy to get his first goal for the club, but also stated that they were not satisfied with not managing to keep a cleen sheet.

He came on as a substitute against Viking FK at the 12th of May in 2016, to get his home debut at Nadderud Stadium in the 80th minute in a 1-0 victory. He stated to Stabæk's official Facebook page after the match that the feeling is not easy to describe and the most important thing was to get the 3 points.

Jeppe said to the Stabæk official live stream before the match that 3 points was all that mattered in the game, but they failed to grab the 3 points but instead kept position in the lower ranks of the table in the relegation zone.
