On a sunny Saturday afternoon at Hylingevallen, Västra Husby IF and Tallboda IF faced off in a match that could very well determine the final stretch of Division 5 Östergötland Mellersta.
The match kicked off with high intensity, and after just twelve minutes, the referee showed the yellow card to Tallboda's midfielder Ludvig Wisting for a hard tackle against his opponents. After a balanced start, Västra Husby IF found a gap in Tallboda's defense after 43 minutes of play when Philip Ählman was able to round the goalkeeper and score to make it 1-0.
Just before halftime, Västra Husby's center-back Malte Klint also received a caution after a foul that risked breaking up a counterattack for Tallboda IF.
Tallboda IF came out strong in the second half and created several dangerous opportunities. After 52 minutes, captain Rasmus Wall Nilsson was fouled in the penalty area, and the referee pointed to the spot. Rasmus himself took the penalty and coolly slotted it into the net to equalize at 1-1.
After the equalizer, Tallboda IF continued to press their opponents hard, and it would only take another fifteen minutes before Carl Jerléus managed to find a gap in the Västra Husby defense and make it 2-1 for the away team.
With only a few minutes left in the match, Tallboda IF's Jacob Aldemir was cautioned after a tough duel, but Västra Husby IF could not capitalize on the free kick, and the match ended 2-1 in favor of the away team.
A crucial victory for Tallboda IF that brings them closer to the top ranks of Division 5 Östergötland Mellersta, while Västra Husby IF must seek a new win to escape the relegation battle.
