Dalstorps IF faced Waggeryds IK at Dalshov Artificial Grass in an eventful match in Division 3 Mellersta Götaland. Despite the absence of an audience, those following the match had plenty to see.
The match started quickly, and after just a few minutes, the referee issued the first warning to the home team’s Benjamin Larsson. Larsson would later be joined by his teammates Adrian Zeka, Enes Poyraz, and Arvid Bygård, all of whom received yellow cards in the first half.
In the second half, both teams made substitutions, and it was Waggeryds IK who took the lead through Ayman Abdi after just over an hour of play. However, Dalstorps IF refused to give up and pressed for an equalizer. It came in the 81st minute when Kevin Mistry put the ball in the net.
The match became increasingly intense, with more yellow cards handed out to both the home and away teams. Waggeryds IK had the chance to regain the lead with a penalty in the 75th minute, but Jonathan Johansson missed and shot straight at the goalkeeper.
In the 89th minute, the home team was awarded a free kick that went directly towards goal. Waggeryds' goalkeeper was forced into a difficult save, and the ball bounced back onto the field. In an attempt to clear the ball from the danger zone, a Waggeryds defender accidentally deflected the ball into his own net, giving Dalstorps IF a 2-1 lead.
However, the match would not conclude without drama. In the final minutes, Dalstorps IF's coach Tommy Berg received a red card and was sent off from the bench. Waggeryds IK also got another chance to equalize with a penalty, but Ayman Abdi missed again, shooting the ball straight at the goalkeeper.
Dalstorps IF won the match 2-1 after a hard-fought effort and a bit of luck. This was Dalstorps IF's seventh victory of the season, while Waggeryds IK is still searching for their first win.
