At a packed Borås Arena, top team IF Elfsborg faces AIK in an intense match. IF Elfsborg finds an early rhythm and immediately shows their offensive strength as Michael Baidoo scores the opening goal in the 14th minute.

AIK, on the other hand, tries to establish themselves in the match, but Johan Larsson makes it difficult for them by doubling IF Elfsborg's lead in the 37th minute with a beautiful header. Johan receives great assistance from Jeppe Møldrup Okkels.

AIK attempts to get back into the match and substitutes Anton Salétros for Omar Faraj in the 64th minute. Unfortunately, this does not help; instead, Bersant Celina receives a yellow card for a tough tackle in the 71st minute.

However, IF Elfsborg is not done with their offensive play and brings on Ahmed Qasem for Jeppe Møldrup Okkels in the 72nd minute. AIK continues to fight, but even a substituted Alexander Milošević cannot stop Michael Baidoo from scoring his second goal of the match with a penalty in the 79th minute.

IF Elfsborg substitutes Simon Hedlund for Alexander Bernhardsson in the 80th minute and Per Frick for Sveinn Guðjohnsen. AIK, in turn, substitutes Alexander Milošević for Mads Døhr Thychosen.

Sotirios Papagiannopoulos receives a yellow card in the 85th minute, and IF Elfsborg makes two more substitutions in the 87th minute, replacing Michael Baidoo with Jalal Abdullai and Andri Fannar Baldursson with Jens Jakob Dyhr Thomasen. Sebastian Holmén gets a yellow card in the 90+3rd minute.

The match ends 3-0 in favor of IF Elfsborg, who leads the Allsvenskan after the match, while AIK continues to struggle in 11th place in the table. Referee Victor Wolf and his assistant referees Niklas Nyberg and Mikael Hallin officiate an intense match at Borås Arena.
