Sunday's match between IFK Västerås FK and BKV Norrtälje at Hitachi Energy Arena was a tough and at times even contest in front of an audience of only 94 people. Referee Ali Shahedy Fard and his assistants Navid Ghanbarzadeh and Mohammed Jawad Nataqi maintained good control of the match and allowed the game to flow.
IFK Västerås FK started strong, and after just 22 minutes of play, Axel Elveljung scored to put the home team in the lead. It was a deserved header following good pressure from Västerås. However, the guests from Norrtälje fought back well, and just before halftime, Jacob Norrman seized the opportunity and leveled the score with a nice equalizer for BKV Norrtälje.
The second half continued in the same way as the first, with both teams making some substitutions to inject a little extra energy. Martin Gerdland from Västerås received a yellow card for playing roughly, while Tobias Sjöstedt Lindborg from Norrtälje also got booked.
After 80 minutes, it was Axel Elveljung's turn to leave the pitch, and he was replaced by Omed Beyar Abdulrahman Ghafour. However, it was Viktor Dahlberg, who came on as a substitute in the 74th minute, who would show his true talent. After replacing Vilgot Clauss, it was Dahlberg who clinched the match with a beautiful shot from the penalty area in the 91st minute. IFK Västerås FK won the match 2-1.
This was a match where both teams demonstrated that they have talent and fighting spirit. IFK Västerås FK had their share of luck, but they managed to get the ball in the net and secure their second win of the season, while BKV Norrtälje unfortunately suffered their second loss of the season.
