His nickname Jeja means literally "Me Then", as that was what he wondered as a kid when he was not picked for the team.

At club level, Gundersen scored more than 200 goals. He won the Norwegian Cup five times. He was also a member of the Norwegian team that played in the 1920 Olympics,[4] and scored twice in the 3–1 win against England's amateur side.
