It was a lovely Friday evening at Kronäng Arena, artificial grass 1, when Kronängs IF faced off against Sexdrega/Lockryd in a match in Division 5 Västergötland South. A hundred-strong crowd had made their way to the arena to watch the two teams compete for points.
The match began evenly with chances at both ends, but it was Kronäng’s Besart Zeqiri who would get the opportunity to open the scoring after an hour of play. Zeqiri confidently scored from the penalty spot, putting the home team ahead 1-0.
Just a few minutes later, Casper Svahn made it 2-0 for Kronängs IF, which set the tone for the rest of the match. Sexdrega/Lockryd tried to find their way back into the game, but Kronäng’s defense resisted all attacks and also applied pressure high up the pitch.
After 65 minutes, Besart Zeqiri would again find the back of the net, making it 3-0 for Kronängs IF. It was clear that Sexdrega/Lockryd had only one chance to get back into the match – to score an early goal.
Instead, the fourth goal for Kronängs IF came, this time from Zeqiri’s third goal of the match, which would complete his hat trick for the evening. With four goals down, it seemed Sexdrega/Lockryd lost faith in a comeback, and Kronängs IF continued to dominate the game.
In the 81st minute, Emil Holmgren would score the fifth and final goal for Kronängs IF, following a well-placed pass from the right side. The match was practically decided, and Kronängs IF could play out the rest of the game.
Despite scoring five goals and delivering a dominant performance, Kronängs IF were not completely satisfied with the match. Referee Mustafa Al-Obaidi had to issue several cards throughout the game, and one of Sexdrega/Lockryd's players was even sent off in the closing stages of the match. Kronängs IF also received a few warnings.
Nonetheless, Kronängs IF secured the match with a convincing 5-0 victory, gaining three much-needed points. Their next match awaits in a week, where Kronängs IF will face another tough opponent at the top of the table.
