It was a lovely Saturday afternoon at Stockholm Stadium when Djurgården hosted Gefle IF FF in the Allsvenskan. In front of an impressive audience figure of 9282 people, it was the home team Djurgården that started the strongest with several dangerous situations. However, Gefle's goalkeeper, Johannes Hopf, stood firmly between the posts and kept a clean sheet in the first half.
At half-time, Djurgården's coach Per-Mathias Högmo chooses to make a substitution and in comes the fast Chibuike Kennedy Igboananike. However, it was Gefle who took over the game and after 68 minutes, two heavy changes came in the form of Hans Berggren and James Frempong for the visitors. Shortly afterwards, Frempong received a warning from referee Stefan Johannesson.
Djurgården themselves received a warning in the 76th minute when Patrik Haginge took down an opponent. Just a few minutes later, however, Djurgården would get a reward - a shot from Christer Youssef went past Hopf and into the goal. However, Youssef is replaced immediately after the goal and instead Sebastian Rajalakso comes in his place.
Gefle responded quickly with several attacks and in the 90th minute the equalizer came through Jakob Orlov, who came on for Sebastian Senatore just a minute earlier. The match thus ended 1-1 after two very strong defenses that played a good match at Stockholms Stadion.
Now both teams are recharging for the next round in the Allsvenskan, where Djurgården meets Elfsborg away and Gefle takes on Häcken at home at Strömvallen.
