A goal-shy first half at Tunavallen in Eskilstuna where GIF Sundsvall took an early lead. It was Linus Hallenius who found the back of the net with Eric Larsson providing the assist in the fourth minute of the match. After that goal, the game swung back and forth without any truly dangerous chances for either team. Athletic Eskilstuna received a caution after a tough tackle by Mohamed Buya Turay.

In the second half, GIF Sundsvall continued to dominate, moving the ball around and creating dangerous opportunities. After just over an hour of play, Noah Sonko Sundberg received a warning, and ten minutes later it was time for Athletic Eskilstuna’s first substitution. But it was GIF Sundsvall who would score the second goal through Hallenius, this time with Jonathan Morsay providing the assist.

Athletic Eskilstuna kept fighting, and it paid off with a goal from Omar Eddahri, who reduced the score to 1-2 in the very last second of the match. Despite that goal, the points would go to GIF Sundsvall, who now sit in twelfth place in the league table, while Athletic Eskilstuna remains at the bottom after a tough season.
