Linköpings FC and Umeå IK FF faced off in an exciting Damallsvenskan match at Folkungavallen in front of 448 spectators. Referee Pernilla Larsson had control of the match but had to work to manage the players' intensity.
Just 7 minutes into the game, it was 1-0 to Linköping, but not in the way one would expect, as a Umeå defender scored an own goal. Linköping continued to press, and in the 10th minute, Petra Johansson extended the lead to 2-0.
However, Umeå showed determination, and in the 44th minute, Maria Nordbrandt reduced the deficit to 2-1 after a nice pass from Hanna Pettersson.
In the second half, the tension continued as Hanna Pettersson equalized for Umeå in the 78th minute with a fine individual effort. But Umeå's joy was short-lived as Pettersson received her second yellow card and was sent off in the 87th minute.
The match ended 2-2, and both teams took home one point each. It was an exciting match filled with competition and provided good entertainment for the audience at Folkungavallen.
