On a sunny afternoon at Furuvallen, 198 spectators witnessed an exciting match between IFK Kalix and Sunnanå SK in Division 3 Norra Norrland for men. Referee Simon Granström and his assistants Isac Lundqvist and Samuel Nilsson Marttala had their hands full managing the game as both teams aimed to secure three points.
However, it was the home team that started the match strongest, and just 26 minutes in, the net behind Sunnanå's goalkeeper shook when Edwin Lundqvist scored to make it 1-0 for IFK Kalix. Sunnanå fought back, and Anton Andersson received a yellow card in the 35th minute, followed by IFK Kalix's Chaho Jamshidi just two minutes later.
At halftime, the score was still 1-0 to the home team, but it didn’t take long for them to extend their lead. Chaho Jamshidi had the honor of scoring the second goal for IFK Kalix in the 53rd minute following a corner kick. Sunnanå responded quickly, reducing the deficit to 2-1 in the 61st minute when Hugo Gustafsson found the back of the net.
IFK Kalix did not want to risk losing their lead and substituted John Larsson in the 64th minute for Noah Westman. This would prove to be a successful change as Edwin Lundqvist scored his second goal of the day in the 70th minute, making it 3-1 for the home team. Sunnanå brought on Abel Bekele and Oliver Hellgren in place of Jonathan Hultdin and Julian Amaya Sedano, while IFK Kalix replaced David Isaksson with Hugo Olsson.
Sunnanå's Caua Valente Muanda was substituted in the 78th minute in an attempt to turn the game around, but his team could not threaten IFK Kalix’s defense enough to score more goals. Lucas Lindfors received a yellow card in the 84th minute, and the floodgates were closed after Shakir Ali received a yellow card in the 90th minute. IFK Kalix concluded the match by substituting Mikael Andersson for Andreas Hedman in the 86th minute.
The match ended with a score of 3-1 in favor of IFK Kalix, who collected three important points in the quest for promotion. Sunnanå will need to regroup and aim to take new points next time they face an opponent at Furuvallen.
