It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon when Vånga IF hosted BK Derby at home at Ekvallen. In front of an audience of 36 people, BK Derby dominated the match from start to finish. Just two minutes into the game, Joel Zetterström scored to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. A few minutes later, in the 11th minute, Jean Marie Mtambala scored and extended Derby's lead to 2-0.
Vånga tried to find their way back into the match, and in the 25th minute, Ludvig Thorild seized the opportunity and scored a beautiful goal to reduce the deficit for the home team, which raised the atmosphere in the stands somewhat.
However, despite Vånga's attempts to come back, Derby controlled the game. In the 52nd minute, Vånga's Wille Sverker received a yellow card for a tough tackle, while BK Derby's Naser Miftari was also cautioned for a similar action.
The match took an irrevocable turn when Miftari later scored in the 76th minute, increasing Derby's lead to 3-1. Vånga desperately tried to score more goals, but Derby's defense held firm, and the match ended with a clear victory for the visitors at 3-1.
Referee Kenneth Bjurström and his assistants Mikael Sörman and Jesper Petersson performed well throughout the match and maintained good control over the game. Derby's victory was well-deserved, and Vånga now needs to regroup for their next match.
