The match between Växjö DFF and Umeå IK FF at Visma Arena in Elitettan offered excitement and a good deal of drama in front of the 295 spectators in the stands.

It was the home team Växjö that got off to a dream start when they took the lead 1-0 due to an unfortunate own goal by Umeå's defense after 22 minutes of play. Despite a still result at halftime, Umeå was unable to find the back of the net, and the match continued with a high tempo and intense play from both teams.

In the second half, Umeå made two early substitutions in an attempt to find an equalizer, but Växjö defended well and kept the guests at bay. Växjö also made several substitutions to try to secure the victory, managing to hold on until the final whistle.

When referee Jennifer Laurin blew the final whistle, it was clear that Växjö DFF won 1-0 and maintained their position at the top of the table. Umeå IK FF, on the other hand, returns home empty-handed but will need to regroup for their next match in an effort to climb the standings.
