Jönköpings Södra IF managed to win a very tough match against Djurgården at Stadsparksvallen. It was Jönköping who initially took the lead in the match after Tommy Thelin scored with a classic side foot from a pass by Pawel Cibicki in the ninth minute. Djurgården looked more pressured by Jönköping's energy and tempo for the remainder of the first half but could not find a goal to equalize.
The second half was significantly more even and it was remarkable that Djurgården failed to shake the net despite dominating possession for much of the period. Jönköping took full control of the match's closing stages with an offensive approach in the last fifteen minutes. Djurgården's final substitutions, Kadewere and Aas Berntsen, could not influence the result, and when the referee blew the whistle, it was 1-0 to the home team.
Jönköpings Södra IF is now in tenth place in the table while Djurgården is in thirteenth place. It was an impressive performance by Jönköpings Södra IF who can now look forward to another decisive encounter against Hammarby next weekend.
The attendance for tonight's match was 5,811 spectators, and the referee for the match was Glenn Nyberg with assistants Mathias Klasenius and Björn Lindroth.
