Match report:
Bäckby IP was the desolate venue for the match between FC Europe Juniors and FK Sala. A match without spectators and only the referees as onlookers. The teams entered the game with different positions in the table but with the same goal in sight – three points.
It was FK Sala who took the lead in the 12th minute when Filmon Teklesenbet headed in the ball after a nice corner kick. FC Europe Juniors quickly responded, and Hamse Ali Yusuf equalized with a fine pass from one of his teammates. Qooje Abdirahman Mohamed ensured that Juniors took the lead when he flicked the ball in shortly after the first goal.
However, one of the home team’s players, Abdifatah Yahye Omar, received a warning at the end of the first half. Shortly thereafter, it seemed like the ball bounced past all the players and ended up in the net of Juniors, allowing Adam Funk to equalize.
In the 79th minute, FK Sala took the lead again when Max Helmin Eriksson skillfully put the ball into the net. But the game took a turn in the 80th minute when Abdirazak Abukar Wehliye received a red card, leaving Juniors with ten men on the field. FK Sala took advantage of this, and Jakob Alvaro Eklund scored another goal, extending the lead to 2-4.
Despite a late consolation goal from Juniors in the 86th minute, thanks to a goal from FK Sala’s Max Helmin Eriksson, the challengers managed to hold on and take three points back to Sala. While FC Europe Juniors remained at the bottom of the table, FK Sala continued to keep pace with the top of Division 6 Västmanland.
