In Tippeligaen, Molde finished in 2nd position, 6 points behind winners Rosenborg.

Molde participated in the 2000 Norwegian Cup. They defeated Spjelkavik, Sunndal, Strindheim, Kjelsås[2] on their way to the quarterfinal where they defeated Lillestrøm with 3–0 at home. On 3 October 2000, Molde lost the semifinal vs. Brann at home with the score 3–4 after extra time.

In the UEFA Champions League, Molde was drawn against Russian team CSKA Moscow in the second qualifying round.[3] Molde lost the first leg at away ground with the score 0–2. Molde won the second leg 4–0 at home and advanced to the next round 4–2 on aggregate. In the third and last qualifying round, Molde was drawn against Spanish team Mallorca. The teams played 0–0 in the first leg in Molde. In the second leg, Molde was one goal behind for more than one hour after Jovan Stanković' penalty goal in the 21st minute.[4] In the 84th minute, Andreas Lund scored the equaliser from a penalty kick after Fernando Niño's handball. Niño was sent off in the situation which led to the penalty. The game ended with a 1–1 draw which sent Molde through to the Champions League group stage for the first time in the club's history. The second leg against Mallorca has since often been referred to as Miracle on Mallorca.[5]
