It was an exciting match at Gavlevallen when Gefle IF FF hosted Djurgården in the first round of the Allsvenskan. The home team started strong, and after a nice pass from Jonas Lantto, Simon Skrabb scored 1-0 for Gefle in the 49th minute. Djurgården continued to fight, and in the 77th minute, they were rewarded when Sam Garyahzon Johnson headed in the equalizer after a fine pass from Kevin Walker.
The match was still tied when it came time for injury time, and it was Djurgården who could decide the game with a late goal from none other than Kevin Walker, who also assisted Johnson’s goal earlier in the match. Gefle tried to fight their way back, but there were no more goals, and Djurgården was able to take three important points home from Gavlevallen.
The referee, Jonas Eriksson, didn’t have much to do during the match and was content to issue just two yellow cards; one for Gefle's Joshua Nadeau and one for Djurgården's Tim Björkström. The attendance was 5,042 people, and they witnessed a truly thrilling match that Djurgården ultimately won 2-1.
