On a sunny Saturday afternoon, GAIS and IFK Värnamo met at Gamla Ullevi in front of an audience of 1,478 people. Referee Enzo Vesprini officiated the match alongside assistants Niklas Alfredsson and Robert Nyberg.

The match started intensely but without any major chances for either team. In the 32nd minute, something unexpected happened when a GAIS defender scored an own goal, giving IFK Värnamo a 1-0 lead. Just three minutes later, the away team extended their lead to two with a nice pass from Oscar Uddenäs, which found Oscar Johansson Schellhas, who promptly placed the ball in the net.

GAIS responded with a substitution at halftime as Simon Alexandersson replaced Viktor Alexandersson. Just two minutes into the second half, GAIS reduced the deficit with a goal from Simon Alexandersson, who scored again off a lovely pass, this time from Filip Örnblom.

The match was marked by several yellow cards, but neither team could add to the scoreline, despite several nail-biting chances. GAIS made two substitutions towards the end of the match while IFK Värnamo replaced two players just before stoppage time due to an injury.

The match ended 2-1 in favor of IFK Värnamo, who took three points back to Småland, while GAIS returned home without any points.
