IFK Göteborg turned the match around and won against Djurgården in an evening match on Monday. After a goalless first half where the teams took turns trying to take the initiative, it was Djurgården who got on the scoreboard in the 53rd minute when Besard Sabovic put his team in the lead after a nice pass from Sam Garyahzon Johnson.

IFK Göteborg responded quickly and equalized in the 61st minute. Gustav Engvall showcased his excellent goal-scoring instinct and headed in a ball after a perfect cross from Emil Salomonsson.

The match was more evenly matched after that, but it was the home team that would ultimately claim victory. In the 82nd minute, Tobias Hysén managed to give IFK Göteborg the lead after a nice interplay with Emil Salomonsson. Djurgården desperately tried to equalize, but despite several dangerous situations, they couldn't find the back of the net.

The match ended 2-1, and IFK Göteborg thus took three important points. Djurgården, on the other hand, suffered their third consecutive loss and currently sits in eighth place in the table, while IFK Göteborg solidifies their fifth place.
