In 1967, Osnes was appointed head coach at Lyn, and guided the club to a cup title in his first season. The following season, Lyn won the league and cup double, and also went on an excellent run in the Cup Winners Cup, where they reached the quarter-finals before being narrowly defeated by Barcelona.Having lost star player Harald Berg, Lyn struggled in 1969, and Osnes stepped down at the end of the season. He later coached Aalesund and Strømsgodset. Osnes died in August 2015, aged 93.
