The Sunday match between Tomelilla IF and Hästveda IF at Tomelilla IP's A-plan did not quite meet the expectations that many supporters had beforehand. Although both teams tried to create chances to take the lead in the first half, it was Hästveda IF who ultimately found the net when Adrian Pop struck a well-placed ball to make it 0-1 in the 16th minute.
However, Tomelilla IF, who worked hard to bounce back, quickly responded and equalized in the 20th minute when Robin Nilsson delivered a beautiful free kick that found its way into the far corner.
The second half started similarly to the first but with better defense from both teams. There were a few heated moments and some tough tackles, prompting referee Elias Sundberg to issue a couple of yellow cards.
In the 86th minute, the decisive moment finally came. Tomelilla IF had been pressing hard, and when Harry Esbjörnsson seized the ball after a corner, he didn’t hesitate to shoot in the leading goal, making it 2-1 for the home team.
Hästveda IF gave everything they had to equalize once more, but Tomelilla IF held firm and could ultimately celebrate their victory. However, they were without some of their fans, who couldn’t stay to see the end of the match after a long and intense working weekend. The total attendance was 132 people who had the honor of witnessing Tomelilla IF's comeback and victory over Hästveda IF, who had no luck in their attempt to steal points. After the match, Tomelilla IF sits in fourth place in Division 4 Skåne Östra, while Hästveda IF continues to slip down the table.
