It was a rather eventful match between IFK Värnamo and Kalmar FF at Finnvedsvallen in Värnamo on Monday evening. The home team fought hard and had some chances, but Kalmar ultimately managed to win 0–1 after a beautiful goal by Noah Shamoun in the 61st minute.

The first dangerous situation of the match came in the 14th minute when David Kristjan Olafsson of Kalmar FF received a yellow card. However, he would not be the only one in the team to receive a warning during the match. Nahom Girmai Netabay and Romario Pereira Sipiao also received yellow cards in the 24th and 35th minutes, respectively.

At halftime, IFK Värnamo substituted Evaldo Nascimento Lamaur Neto for Kenan Bilalovic, but unfortunately, it did not help the team move forward. Instead, it was Kalmar FF that scored through Noah Shamoun after a nice assist from Johan Karlsson in the 61st minute.

IFK Värnamo then desperately tried to find an equalizer, making three substitutions at once in the 68th minute: Freddy Winsth, Albin Lohikangas, and Albion Ademi. But Kalmar FF held firm and ultimately won the match 0–1.

Despite the loss, IFK Värnamo remains in a respectable eleventh place in the table, while Kalmar FF sits in sixth place and continues to fight for a spot in the upper part of the Allsvenskan. It remains to be seen how the rest of the season will unfold for both teams.
