Dalkurd secured a hard-fought away victory on Monday evening at Studenternas in Uppsala against IK Sirius FK. The final score was 1-2 after a well-played match. Initially, the game was balanced, with several evenly contested plays and missed goal opportunities from both teams in the first half.

After 60 minutes, the home team opened the scoring with a header from Dragan Kapcevic, who put the ball in the net and gave his team a 1-0 lead. Alexander Nilsson provided the assist. Goal-scorer Kapcevic would have another dangerous chance, but Dalkurd's goalkeeper stopped the ball on the goal line.

However, after just over an hour of play, Dalkurd found their equalizer. Henrik Löfkvist Jacobsson made it 1-1 and was a significant part of the play that led to the goal.

Dalkurd shifted into an even higher gear, and just six minutes later, they took a 2-1 lead through Leonard Pllana, with Predrag Randelovic providing the assist. Sirius fought hard to equalize but were unable to score, and the match ended 1-2.

Dalkurd's evening was somewhat troubled, as they received two yellow cards for players Simon Stenberg and Heradi Rashidi.

The audience at Studenternas witnessed a well-played and exciting match, but it was ultimately Dalkurd that claimed the victory, now sitting in sixth place in the table, while IK Sirius FK occupies second place.
