An intense match between Växjö Norra IF and Högsby IK took place at Åbo Idrottsplats on Saturday afternoon. It was a tough battle from start to finish, but it was Högsby who emerged victorious, winning the match 1-0.

The first goal came after just 11 minutes of play when William Stjernberg from Högsby found the back of the net, giving the visitors an early lead. Växjö attempted to launch an attacking play to equalize, but Högsby held firm and kept all attempts at bay.

Hannes Johansson from Högsby received a warning after 30 minutes of play, but Växjö's Mattias Pavic was unable to convert a penalty later in the match after a save by Högsby's goalkeeper.

In the second half, Växjö brought on Joel Friman in an attempt to create more chances going forward. However, Högsby maintained their solidity, and William Stjernberg was sent off after 63 minutes due to a second yellow card.

Both teams made more substitutions, but Högsby managed to hold onto their lead and won the match 1-0. Anton Olsson from Högsby received a warning during stoppage time, but that did not change the outcome.

The match was played in front of 220 spectators at Åbo Idrottsplats in Växjö, with referee Arian Banda officiating and assistant referees Taib Sisic and Senad Hamula.
