Swedish Premier Division - Match 10 - Halmstad (Home)
Next up was Halmstad, and my only changes were Lepiller starting in place of the injured Molins, and swapping wings with Forsberg, and Possebon playing in midfield in place of Adu.
In the first minute Lepiller found space for a shot, which was well saved but earned us a corner. We got another corner on the other side, and Johansson’s header was brilliantly saved.
Forsberg then scored, but was ruled offside. All of this within the first 2 and a half minutes!
3 minutes later and the danger was up our end, as Olsen pulled off an excellent save from a point blank volley.
Nothing further of note happened until the 27th minute, where Halmstad scored, but were also given offside.
32nd minute, and Forsberg was brought down just inside the box. Lepiller buried the penalty.
In the 57th minute, we doubled our lead, as Lepiller found Eriksson, who found the top left corner.
They linked again just three minutes later, Lepiller cutting inside and finding Eriksson running wide. His cross deflected off a defender, and Simon Thern ran onto it and first timed his shot into the net!
Johansson hit the bar from a late corner, before 18 year old right back Jakob Palander made his debut from the bench.
Once again, Lepiller and Eriksson, with a goal and an assist apiece, were the stars of the show in a “highly polished performance”.
POM: Matthias Lepiller (8.9, 1G, 1A)
We are now third in the table and just two points behind leaders Elfsborg! With three consecutive 3-0 wins, we can look ahead with optimism, which was unthinkable during our three game losing run, where we looked toothless.
Sadly we still have a number of injuries in the squad:
