Per-Mathias Høgmo

Per-Mathias Høgmo (born December 1 1959) is a former football manager from Norway.

He was the manager of Rosenborg BK between August 2005, when he replaced Per Joar Hansen after a disappointing first half of the season, and October 2006, when he with immediate effect resigned from his position as manager, and said he would withdraw from football altogether, to pursue a new career.

Before taking the manager role for Rosenborg, he worked as a commentator for NRK's football coverage called "4-4-2".

He had success with the women's national football team, leading them to a 4th place in the World Championship of 1999, and a gold medal in the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

With Tromsø IL, who he joined in 2004, he took the team to 4th place in Tippeligaen, and qualified them for Royal League.

His younger brother Mads Høgmo is currently manager for the Norwegian third division club Salangen IF.
