Helsingborgs IF welcomed Gefle IF FF at Olympia in a match that turned out to be a real goal fest. The home team started strong and already after ten minutes, Walid Atta scored 1-0, assisted by Erik Edman.
The second half began with a concerning incident for Helsingborgs IF when Alfred Finnbogason received a yellow card. However, he would soon redeem himself by scoring two quick goals, both assisted by Edman and Bouaouzan. The score was now 3-0 to the home team, and Gefle IF FF made two substitutions.
A glimmer of hope was ignited for the away team when Mikael Dahlberg reduced it to 3-1, assisted by Jonas Lantto. But it was short-lived joy as Finnbogason completed his hat trick and scored his third goal of the evening.
The match ended with a convincing 4-1 victory for Helsingborgs IF, who then substituted Alvaro Santos in place of Finnbogason. Gefle IF FF also managed to substitute Erik Törnros for Johan Oremo, but it couldn’t change the result.
Referee Johan Hamlin also showed Alexander Faltsetas a yellow card in the second half’s stoppage time, which was a disappointing conclusion for Gefle IF FF. 8,597 spectators attended the match despite it being a Monday evening.
