GIF Sundsvall secured an important victory against Syrianska FC on Saturday evening when they met at Idrottsparken. Sundsvall started strong and dominated the match for the majority of the time. An early own goal gave the team the lead just 15 minutes into the game.

Sundsvall continued to control the match and increased their lead to 2-0 after 50 minutes thanks to a headed goal from Jón Gudni Fjóluson, assisted by Kevin Walker. Syrianska FC tried to get back into the game by bringing in Isa Demir for Dinko Felic, but their attempts to reduce the deficit went awry.

Instead, it was Syrianska FC that managed to score through Nikola Grubjesic in the 62nd minute, assisted by Rabi Elia, but Sundsvall responded quickly with a goal from Adam Chennoufi, assisted by Daniel Sliper, meaning the match ended 3-1.

Sundsvall could have further increased their lead, but Syrianska goalkeeper Lazar Karemovic kept his team in the match with a few spectacular saves. The game became relatively petty, and in the midst of it all, Syrianska's Diego Brum received a yellow card in the 57th minute.

The teams made several substitutions during the match, including Gerlem William De Jesus Almeida replacing Igor Santos Koppe for Syrianska FC in the 55th minute. Charbel Georges came on for Yussuf Saleh in the 75th minute. For Sundsvall, Pa Amat Dibba replaced Simon Helg, and Johan Lundgren came in for Runar Sigurjonsson in the 75th and 83rd minutes respectively, while Philip Olofsson replaced Daniel Sliper in the final minute.

In summary, it was a fairly straightforward victory for GIF Sundsvall. With three goals scored and a four-point lead in the table, Sundsvall is focused on maintaining their momentum heading into the next match. Syrianska FC fought until the end to get back into the game, which can be seen as a sign of the team's ongoing development.
