Venue: Furuvallen

On Saturday afternoon, IFK Kalix faced Umeå FC Akademi at Furuvallen. The stands were empty, and a sunny day created a different atmosphere, but both teams were still motivated as they stepped onto the field.

Sophisticated ball control from both sides dominated the beginning of the match, with Umeå FC's Anton Nylander in the spotlight. It was IFK's defensive stance that led to an early caution when Chaho Jamshidi was unable to stay within the allowed limits after thirteen minutes.

In the end, it was Umeå FC Akademi that scored the goal that opened up the match. Anton Nylander converted a penalty in the 26th minute after a foul in the penalty area by IFK. With the lead, Umeå FC got into the game, but IFK Kalix held firm as much as they could.

IFK's frustration grew as the match progressed, with more cards being issued. Edwin Lundqvist was forced to leave the field after receiving his second yellow card in the 39th minute. However, Nylander from Umeå FC managed to avoid a red card despite receiving a yellow card in the 61st minute.

Umeå FC Akademi made a few substitutions to freshen up their offense towards the end of the match, and it became particularly dangerous when Nylander scored his second goal with a beautiful volley after a corner in the 79th minute. In stoppage time, in the 90+1st minute, Umeå FC made two substitutions, and Johan Ekholm from IFK also received a yellow card.

This was exactly what Umeå FC Akademi needed to defeat their rivals. The match ended with a resounding victory of 0-2 for Umeå FC, and when referee Simon Svensson blew the final whistle, it was a signal for IFK that they needed to improve for their next match.
