Angular 4 routing - is it possible to have two router components

So, i'm using angular 4 to develop an app, and i have a problem. I want to use angular 4 routing to include two components in one page, but it doesn't seem to be doable in the way i want to do it. I have a component header which is just a navbar, and i have another component home, which already has a navbar so i don't want to include header with home, but with some other component login for example. So i tried looking at angular docs and the closest way to do this would be with childs, but i don't want login to be a child of header. I tried putting to router-outlets and two components in my app.module.ts file, but it didn't work out.

Your main component could be displayed in the default router outlet and the second component could be displayed in a secondary, named router outlet like this:

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-md-10">
            <router-outlet></router-outlet>
        </div>
        <div class="col-md-2">
            <router-outlet name="popup"></router-outlet>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

You can then route to the secondary route like this:

this.router.navigate([{outlets: { popup: ['messages']}}]);

You can see a complete example here: https://github.com/DeborahK/Angular-Routing
