Eirik Ulland Andersen (born 21 September 1992) is a former Norwegian professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Early career
Hailing from Haugesund, Andersen played for Vard Haugesund until he signed for FK Haugesund in 2010.[2] He made his debut for Haugesund in Tippeligaen against Aalesund on 10 April 2011.[1] Andersen played a total of 145 minutes in 10 matches for Haugesund in Tippeligaen in 2011, and scored five goals in three matches in the Norwegian Cup.[2]
Andersen was loaned to his old club Vard Haugesund, playing in the 2. divisjon, until 31 July.[2] On 1 August 2012, he joined Vard Haugesund on a permanent transfer.[3] The club won promotion from the 2012 2. divisjon. He played for second-tier club Hødd from 2013 to 2016.

On 25 February 2021, he scored a brace in a 2–0 away win over TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in the 2020–21 UEFA Europa League round of 32,[8] to qualify with his team to the next round.
