Helsingborgs IF hosted Örgryte IS FF at Olympia in front of a crowd of 8,067 on Saturday evening. Helsingborg was in search of another important victory to maintain its position at the top of the table, while Örgryte aimed to seize the opportunity to climb the standings.

The match began energetically for both teams, and after just five minutes, the referee issued a yellow card to Örgryte player Sebastian Carlsen. After half an hour, Helsingborg created a significant goal chance, but the ball went just wide of the post.

In the 67th minute, Helsingborg made two substitutions simultaneously, bringing in Carl Wede for Martin Christensen, and Jesper Lange for Max Svensson. These substitutions seemed to inject extra energy into the team, as just a few minutes later, Lange scored the opening goal for Helsingborg with an assist from Adam Eriksson.

After a well-executed match, Helsingborgs IF led 1-0, but Örgryte had not yet given up. In the 78th minute, the away team made a substitution, bringing Jens-Lys Michel Cajuste on for Daniel Sliper, and continued to press Helsingborg's defense. However, Örgryte could not equalize, and four minutes later, they made another substitution, bringing in Emil Skogh for Andreas Brinkeborn Östling.

In the final minutes, Örgryte frantically tried to find an equalizer, but it was instead Helsingborgs IF who received a warning when Pär Hansson was booked in the 89th minute. Örgryte kept pushing for a goal but was unsuccessful, and the match ended 1-0 in favor of Helsingborgs IF.

With the win, Helsingborgs IF managed to retain its position in third place in the table, while Örgryte IS FF remained in sixth place. In the next matchday, Helsingborg will play away against Varbergs BoIS FC, while Örgryte will host FC Norrby.
