In the 35th minute, Rimforsa capitalized on a communication error in Mjölby's defense, and Rambin managed to chip the ball in again after a great run into the open space, making it 1-2 to the away team. Mjölby continued to fight and earned a penalty in the 42nd minute after a handball in the box. Filip Johansson was cool under pressure and equalized to 2-2.
The second half saw continued determination from both teams, but the score remained unchanged until the final whistle. Rimforsa had several sharp opportunities to win the match, but the Mjölby defense held firm. The play wasn't always well-organized but was all the more entertaining with flowing attacks and intense duels in midfield.

Referee Moamel Alaa Abdulzahra Abdulzahra issued a small number of warnings, but the match was otherwise well-played and respectful from both teams.
