In Sunday evening's match between Falköpings KIK and Råda BK at Odenplan A-plan, it was the home team that secured the victory with a score of 1-0. Despite a rather modest crowd of 92 spectators, the teams delivered an exciting match with tough duels and several yellow cards.
Already in the 25th minute of the match, the first yellow card was issued. It went to Falköpings KIK's number 8, Emma Karlsson. Once again, a card was given in the 78th minute, but this time it was Råda BK's Sigrid Verngren who was penalized for a hard tackle.
The match was evenly matched and it was difficult to separate the teams. However, in the 81st minute, the decisive goal came, and it was Falköping that managed to break the deadlock. A free kick by Hanna Berger resulted in the ball finding its way into Råda BK's goal. With one goal up, Falköping continued to push forward, but Råda defended strongly, and no further goals were scored.
In the final minutes, Karlsson, who had previously received a yellow card, was cautioned again, and this time it had more severe consequences. She was shown a red card, which meant that Falköpings KIK had to continue with ten players on the field.
Despite this setback, Falköpings KIK managed to hold on and maintain their lead until the final whistle. The three points represented a long-awaited victory for the home team, while Råda BK left empty-handed despite their strong performance.
