Gamla Upsala SK managed to secure a very important away victory against Eskilstuna United DFF at Tunavallen in Elitettan on Friday evening. After a first half characterized by a lot of struggle but few dangerous chances in front of the goals, the home team's coach chose to substitute Paige McAllister for Cajsa Karlsson during the halftime break. However, this substitution would not have any decisive effect.
At the beginning of the second half, it was Gamla Upsala SK who dominated the play, and they forced Eskilstuna United DFF into a defensive position. After just five minutes, Camilla Olsson received a yellow card, but just a few minutes later she would give her team the lead.

After this goal, Eskilstuna United DFF began to fight harder to equalize. The coach chose to bring in Kaisa Collin and Fiona Eriksson to provide the team with a new offensive spark. But despite several dangerous situations, they were unable to get the ball into the net, and the match ended 0-1 in favor of Gamla Upsala SK.
