This Superettan match between Athletic Eskilstuna and IK Brage at Tunavallen ended goalless, despite several situations on both sides. The home team made an early substitution after just 13 minutes when Ibrahim Blati Toure replaced Sasa Matic. Athletic had a couple of half-chances, but were not enough to threaten the IK Brage defense.
In the 36th minute, Wellyson De Oliveira Sobrau received a yellow card after a hard tackle. IK Brage, on the other hand, also had their chances, but their attacks were often interrupted by the strong home defense. In the 42nd minute, Alexander Zetterström also received a yellow card for the visiting team.
The same pattern continued in the second half, where both teams tried to find a gap in their opponents' defense, but it ended in frustration. Athletic substituted Sobrau for Michel Termanini in the 64th minute, but it didn't provide any new solutions. IK Brage also substituted Erik Nilsson for Oscar Lundin in the 72nd minute, which created some new chances, but still without result.
Pontus Hindrikes Bergström for IK Brage also received a yellow card from the referee in the 73rd minute, and the away team had a couple more chances to score, but without reward. Mihlali Mayambela replaced Robbin Sellin in the 75th minute.
Athletic also had their chances at the end of the match, but Ferid Ali received a yellow card in the 80th minute, Termanini in the 89th minute, and Gianluca Curci in the 90th minute, so the match ended 0-0. Both teams will return next week with new ambitions.
