It was an exciting match at Borås Arena as Ljungskile SK hosted Hammarby in the fourth round of Superettan. The attendance wasn't the highest, with only 3,369 people making it to the stadium, but the atmosphere was at its peak.
Referee Kristoffer Karlsson did a good job of keeping the players in check, even though five yellow cards were handed out during the match. Hammarby seized the ball right at the start and pressed Ljungskile SK hard, but they couldn't score any goals. Erik Sundin received an early yellow card in the seventh minute, and Thomas Guldborg Christensen quickly followed with a warning in the 31st minute.
Ljungskile SK responded by getting two yellow cards of their own, with both Aleksandar Kitic and Tobi Alabi receiving cautions in the 43rd and 44th minutes. Nikolas Ledgerwood from Hammarby also received a yellow card in the 44th minute.
The halftime break started with a score of 0-0, and Hammarby brought on Monday James in the 45th minute to try to provide an extra boost to their attacking play. It wasn't until the 61st minute that the next substitution was made, as Sebastian Castro Tello replaced Mattias Adelstam for Hammarby.
Ljungskile SK decided to substitute Jonas Lindberg in the 62nd minute, with Robin Iglicar taking his place. Hammarby's Monday James received a yellow card in the 67th minute, and the game became increasingly intense.
Ljungskile SK's coach decided to substitute James Sinclair in the 73rd minute, but no substitution was made. Hammarby replaced Christophe Lallet with Mikael Rynell in the 83rd minute. With just a few minutes left to play, Ljungskile SK substituted Amir Suljic for Nuri Mustafi.
The match ended in a 0-0 draw, with both teams sharing the points. Both teams fought until the very end, but neither managed to score. The next time they meet, both teams will likely compete even harder.
