Stig Inge Bjørnebye (born December 11, 1969 in Elverum) was a Norwegian soccer player who made a name for himself at Liverpool. He mostly played left back both in the club and in the national team. In the national team he was well known for his long passes to striker Jostein Flo. He also set up Michael Owen for his first goal in a 2-1 defeat to Wimbledon F.C.. For Norway, Bjørnebye was capped 75 times after making his international debut against Austria in 1989. He played for his country at the 1994 and 1998 FIFA World Cup, as well as Euro 2000. Other than Liverpool, he also played for Strømmen, Kongsvinger, Rosenborg, Brøndby and Blackburn Rovers. Bjørnebye was for a period the assistant manager in the Norwegian national team under Åge Hareide. He is also one of the owners of Nybergsund I.L. He was appointed as the new manager of I.K. Start in 2006, but in September 2007 he was sacked, after bad results.
