On Monday evening, Kabel Åttio/Byttorp/Bergdalen faced Hemsjö IF in one of the most exciting matches of the Division 4 Västergötland Västra. Ryda Football Hall, usually a vibrant arena, was this time desolate with the attendance count at zero. However, the match was so intense that one could almost believe there were thousands of spectators present.
Kabel Åttio/Byttorp/Bergdalen came out strong from the start, and already in the fourth minute, it was Amanda Ekström who set up an early lead with a goal making it 1-0. But Hemsjö IF fought back, and in the tenth minute, Elin Larsson equalized for the away team. The score was 1-1 at halftime, but it was clear that Hemsjö was stronger in the second half.
Just 48 minutes into the match, Elin Larsson scored her second goal, putting Hemsjö IF in the lead with a score of 2-1. Then she was given the opportunity to complete a hat trick when she scored her third goal from a controversial penalty in the 64th minute. The match reached an exciting climax when Amanda Ekström netted her second goal for Kabel Åttio/Byttorp/Bergdalen with a header in the 68th minute, reducing the score to 2-3, but Hemsjö IF managed to hold on and secure three points.
Referee Esad Ramovic had a lot to manage with two yellow cards, one for Hemsjö IF's Josefin Sandstedt and the other for goalscorer Elin Larsson. He was also behind the controversial penalty that later led to Hemsjö IF's goal.
An exciting match that showcased strong play from Hemsjö IF, particularly from Elin Larsson, who scored all three goals, bringing the team back to winning form in Division 4 Västergötland Västra.
