It was a rainy and windy Saturday evening at Östertälje IP B1 when Afrikansk FC faced FC Somtuna in Division 5 Södermanland, the men's league. The attendance was not very large, with only 25 people gathered to watch the match. Referee Omid Abdulla officiated the game, assisted by linesmen Aria Salehi and Ridwan Husein.
FC Somtuna took the lead in the match. Hussein Amin Mohamed scored a goal just four minutes in and then extended the lead with his second goal 27 minutes into the game. Afrikansk FC battled hard but struggled to find their rhythm and had difficulty creating chances.
However, after half an hour of play, Adeoluwa David Adenusi managed to reduce the score to 1-2, and it seemed like Afrikansk FC could pull themselves back from their deficit. Unfortunately, Afrikansk FC couldn’t maintain their momentum, and Mohamed Abdiwali Abdulle scored FC Somtuna's third goal just nine minutes after the home team's reduction.
The second half started like the first, with FC Somtuna being the smarter team on the pitch, and just two minutes in, it was 1-4 when Hassan Mahamed Abdi scored. The rest of the half was a major disappointment for Afrikansk FC and pure enjoyment for FC Somtuna. Mohamed Salah Shire, Hussein Amin Mohamed (who scored his third goal and thus completed a hat trick), and once again Hussein Amin Mohamed in the 87th minute, ensured that the match ended 2-8 in favor of FC Somtuna.
It was an impressive performance from FC Somtuna, who took advantage of every opportunity they were given. Afrikansk FC has some work to do before their next match but has also shown that they can score and fight until the end.
