Umeå FC hosted Carlstad United BK at home in a match that, despite its excitement and intensity, turned out to be somewhat of a tightly contested affair. The home team, with Boye Isaac Edegware as the main player, managed to take the lead with a penalty in the 26th minute.
Carlstad United then tried to chase an equalizer and were aggressive at times. Jesper Karlsson received a yellow card after 42 minutes, which would later prove to be his only noticeable contribution on the field. In the second half, Umeå continued to act decisively, and Eric Forsberg couldn't help but pick up a yellow card after 46 minutes.
After just under an hour of play, Carlstad United substituted Linus Almqvist for Oscar Danielsson in an attempt to find new solutions in the attack. However, Umeå FC was well aware of the plan and its challenges and managed to hold firm.
In the 71st minute, Umeå made their first substitution as Yoel Embaye replaced Emmanuel Yeboah. They then proceeded to make two more substitutions, Seif Kadhim and Victor Kamf, while Carlstad made two substitutions as well, Samuel Palenius and Erik Sachs.
Seif Kadhim received a yellow card after 90 minutes, bringing Umeå FC to within two yellow cards of receiving another suspension on the field. This frustration was also evident on the pitch as Deniz Yaldir picked up a yellow card during stoppage time, three minutes into added time, which marked the final whistle of the match.
In the end, Umeå FC managed to secure a 1-0 victory at home, rewarding the 278 spectators with a well-played match filled with tough challenges and necessary, cautious advances.
