Assyriska FF wins at home against FoC Farsta FF with a score of 1-0 in a rather uneventful match. Already in the 10th minute, Assyriska FF scores its only goal with a nice volley from Bachir Katourgi. FoC Farsta FF tries to apply pressure and substitutes Jonathan Hjelm for Felix Borgqvist in the 27th minute to speed up the game. But it is in vain, and instead, Ivo Öjhage and Elias Safar each receive a yellow card in the 30th and 37th minutes.
In stoppage time of the first half, drama unfolds when Assyriska FF's Marko Atanackovic receives a red card after bringing down an opponent in a goal-scoring opportunity. Linus Peter Mikael Kåla from FoC Farsta FF and Marcus Linday from Assyriska FF also received yellow cards in the heated atmosphere. FoC Farsta FF substituted Gaël Zackrisson for Ivo Öjhage at halftime, but despite several substitutions in the second half, they never really got their game going.
Assyriska FF's Atish Ballchand and Elion Rujkovcani came on to strengthen the defense, while FoC Farsta FF substituted Michael Nakash for Oskar Kaufmann and Amadou Junior Tandia for Simon Forsell in the 60th minute. Abbas Alkhafagi took over for Jonas Amri in the 66th minute to reinforce the midfield. Despite several chances, neither team managed to score any more goals. Filip Bovin and Josef Rakez, assistant coaches for FoC Farsta FF, and Jakob Rhawi from Assyriska FF, all received yellow cards.
Despite a nervous ending to the match where Atish Ballchand received a yellow card in the 81st minute, and Jakob Rhawi and Josef Rakez received warnings during stoppage time, Assyriska FF managed to hold on and won the match 1-0. Assyriska FF maintains its second place in the table while FoC Farsta FF remains in 12th place. The attendance at Södertälje Fotbollsarena was 650 spectators, and the referees Anel Begovic, Hisham Abo-Jiriy, and Omid Abdulla maintained order in the game.
