It was a sunny Saturday afternoon at Platinumcars Arena when IF Sylvia hosted Motala AIF FK in Division 2 Södra Svealand. The match attracted an attendance of 102 people and was officiated by main referee David Almgren alongside assistants Emanoel Tanzi and Henrik Söderqvist.
Just 12 minutes into the game, the home team opened the scoring when number 5, Linus Brunzell, found the back of the net for IF Sylvia. Motala AIF FK then tried to bounce back and created some dangerous chances, but they were unable to score. Instead, Valon Silka received a yellow card after 25 minutes of play.
Motala AIF decided to substitute Ibrahim Koroma for Simon Wennerhag in the 44th minute, but before the halftime break, the referee issued a warning to Elmer Civgin and blew the whistle for halftime.
The second half turned out to be eventful as Motala AIF FK received a red card in the 67th minute when Civgin picked up his second yellow card. Ten minutes later, IF Sylvia extended their lead through number 15, Ihab Naser.
IF Sylvia then made two substitutions, bringing in Oliver Beletic for Linus Brunzell and Antonios Bahdke for Anton Hallstensson in the 71st and 78th minutes, respectively, while Motala AIF responded with a substitution, bringing Renato Rako on for Jonathan Hellqvist in the 61st minute.
Motala AIF FK continued to fight despite being a man down, and after a free kick taken by Ibrahim Koroma, the ball found the net with a header in the 84th minute, thus reducing the deficit for Motala in the exciting final minutes. IF Sylvia made their final substitution when Oskar Rantala Törnfeldt came on for Carl Björk in the 85th minute.
The match concluded after 90 minutes of play, and the home team IF Sylvia could happily count their first goal as match-winning as they won the game 2-1 over Motala AIF FK.
