On the evening of Wednesday, June 28, an exciting match took place in Division 4 Blekinge, where Ronneby BK faced Hörvikens IF at Brunnsvallen. Despite the absence of spectators (due to coronavirus restrictions), the sound of players' cleats and the referee's whistles was clearly audible in the arena.
The match started with hard challenges and plenty of tough tackles. After 18 minutes, Hörvikens' Emil Hansson received a warning from the referee for a particularly harsh tackle. However, it was Ronneby who struck first on the scoreboard when Joakim Mattsson scored to make it 1-0 in the 27th minute.
Hörvikens did not allow Ronneby to take the lead without a fight, and just seven minutes later, they found the back of the net behind the opposing goalkeeper. Tor Holmstedt scored to equalize at 1-1.
In the second half, the match continued in the same hard-fought style, but there was more ball possession for the home team, Ronneby. Niklas Mendez scored to put Ronneby ahead 2-1 in the 59th minute, but Hörvikens' Viggo Ragnarsson equalized just four minutes later. On both the home and away benches, the coaches sat deep in concentration, noting which players would make substitutions and what tactics would be employed.
After the third goal, the game became a bit more heated, and the referees had to step in and issue warnings to players on both sides. Oskar Hansson from Hörvikens IF received a warning in the 70th minute, and Alexander Calic from Ronneby BK received a warning just four minutes later. In the final moments, both teams battled to decide the match, but 2-2 was the final score when the referee blew the whistle, and the players exchanged respectful handshakes.
After the match, both coaches continued to analyze the play and plan for future matches. Although neither team won, both sides were surely glad not to have lost that evening at Brunnsvallen.
