Lindome GIF tried to make a comeback by bringing on Max Andersson and Erik Zetterberg at halftime. Lindome had several good chances, but it was Vänersborgs IF that managed to extend their lead when Lindome received a caution after 63 minutes.
After further substitutions and warnings for both teams, Max Andersson finally scored Lindome’s first goal, reducing the score to 1-2 after 71 minutes. However, Vänersborgs IF held off Lindome’s late push and secured three points by the end of the match.
The game featured some tough tackles, but referee Mohamed Rachid kept a steady hand on the play and also addressed the somewhat palpable heat with timely water breaks.
Vänersborgs IF's coach heads home with a valuable three points, while Lindome GIF will regroup for their next match.
