In Saturday's match between Gottne IF and Storfors AIK at Haraldsängen 1, it was a thrilling encounter where Storfors ultimately pulled ahead and won 3-2. There was an audience of 185 people who came to watch the teams compete in Division 2 Norrland for men.
The match began with an even distribution of play between the teams, but it was Storfors who first managed to break the deadlock with a fine assist from William Andersson-Junkka to Kalle Strömbäck, who easily slotted the ball into the net after 12 minutes of play.
However, Gottne did not lose their way and continued to fight, and it wasn't long before Danny Harmon broke through and equalized to make it 1-1 after 26 minutes. But Gottne's joy was short-lived as Peter Berglund from Storfors headed in a corner just two minutes later.
In the 43rd minute, Anthony Ferrara was sent off after a tough tackle. Gottne tried to come back but failed, going into halftime trailing 1-2.
In the second half, Gottne came out with renewed energy and substituted Jesper Bergström for Jonathan Powell. They maintained their offensive pressure but could not find the back of the net.
Instead, it was Storfors who got a chance, substituting Arvid Löfgren for Kalle Strömbäck in the 70th minute. Then, Gottne was awarded a free kick right on the edge of the penalty area in the 81st minute, which Danny Harmon beautifully converted to make it 2-2.
But in the 83rd minute, Gottne substituted Danny Harmon, and Storfors brought in Tom Eklund, which turned out to be a successful change as Joseph Wirtala scored the decisive goal in the 90+7th minute. Despite a late push from Gottne, the team could not recover, and the match ended 2-3 in favor of Storfors AIK.
