Match Report:
On Wednesday evening at Rydets IP A artificial grass, Onsala BK faced Askims IK in a match that almost ended in a surprise. The home team were clear favorites to win, as they were leading the table before kick-off while the visitors were in fifth place.
The first 45 minutes were quite eventless, but immediately after the break, the first warning was issued, and it went to Jonathan Jarlén from Askims IK. In the 63rd minute, Johan Jarnvik from Onsala BK should also have received a warning, which he did.
Just as Onsala began to lose their grip on the match, the visitors struck. In the 64th minute, Askims IK was awarded a penalty, and Fredrik Rumin converted it confidently to make it 0-1. Onsala BK now had to fight to get back into the game and brought on Markus Koc in an attempt to find new routes to goal.
After that substitution, something changed among the Onsala players. They started playing with much more confidence and appeared to be better coordinated on the pitch. This turned out to be a successful tactic, as in the 80th minute the team created a chance, and Fredrik Holmberg scored the equalizer to make it 1-1. The home team continued to press and created a few more chances, but no more goals would come in the match. The final warning of the game was issued to Askims IK's Carl Weigert. In the last minute of the match, the visitors substituted Lyle Ben Gifford for Tobias Schreiber.
The result of the match was 1-1, and Onsala BK saw their two-point lead shrink as Halmia won their match on Thursday. Askims IK, on the other hand, will likely be pleased with their performance. After a tough period on the player front, they managed to secure a point from the league's top team. The attendance for the match was 155. Referee Marcus Strandberg did an excellent job during the game of keeping order between both teams. The assistant referees were Skender Zejnulla and Masar Krasniqi.
